Chelsea sign Belgian starlet

Chelsea have completed the signing of Belgian wonderkid Kevin de Bruyne from Genk. The 19 year old had been linked with the Blues for quite some time now and also had clubs like Arsenal and Manchester United, among others, tracking his progress. The Blues have reportedly paid Genk a reported £7m fee for De Bruyne, who has put pen to paper a five and a half year contract at Stamford Bridge.

However Blues fans will have to wait till the summer to see De Bruyne in a Chelsea shirt as the London club have also agreed to loan him back to Genk till the end of the current season.

De Bruyne is the third Belgian to join Chelsea in recent months after the acquisitions of Romelu Lukaku and Thibault Courtois.
