Chelsea have confirmed the signing of goalkeeper Eduardo from Dinamo Zagreb.

After completing his move to The Blues Eduardo said, “Having the opportunity to come to the Premier League and to Chelsea, to such a big club, it is an easy decision to make.
“For me this is the best and the most difficult league and it is another level from where I have been until now. So it is a new challenge, at this moment I feel very good, so I am ready for this.
“All the colleagues I have always say the dream is to come to the Premier League, where there are the best clubs and the best players, and the opportunity to come here arrived at this moment.
“I am happy to be here and I hope I meet the expectations people have for me.”
