Chelsea have confirmed the signing of Colombian Juan Cuadrado from Fiorentina.

The 26-year-old, who can play behind a striker or on either wing, has agreed a four-and-a-half-year contract.

“I am very happy and thankful for this opportunity I’ve been given,” he told Chelsea’s website.

“This is a great club and honestly it is like a dream to join the Chelsea family and to know that the manager believes in me. I’m happy.”

Cuadrado spent five-and-a-half years in Italy, where he played for Udinese before joining Fiorentina in 2012 after a loan spell at Lecce.
