Keeper Bettinelli completes Chelsea move

Goalkeeper Marcus Bettinelli has signed for Chelsea after over a decade at neighbouring Fulham. 

Bettinelli has joined the Blues having been out of contract with the Cottagers and will add to the Londoners' goalkeeping resources after the departure of Willy Caballero.

The 6ft 4in former England Under-21 international made over 120 appearances for Fulham, but has now signed a two year deal with last season's Champions League winners. 

Talking about his move across west London, Bettinelli said: 

 "It’s always been a special club. I know the area very well so it’s been a dream of mine to come over to this side and it’s finally happened. 

There were some talks a few years ago when I was a bit younger and for whatever reason that didn’t come about, but I’m here now.

‘I’m really excited to be involved and looking forward to trying to impress and help the team as much as I can."
