The 25-year-old signs a six-year deal with Premier League giants Chelsea until 2030. He’drejected a similar move to Brighton last week after Chelsea came into the picture and hijackedthe move.

Leicester were targeting £40m for Dewsbury-Hall and an earlier bid from Chelsea was rejected,but significant pressure from Premier League profit and sustainability regulations may havebeen a factor behind them accepting less.

The player links up again with manager Enzo Maresca, who joined the Blues this summer afterwinning the Championship title with Leicester last season.

Dewsbury-Hall scored 12 and assisted 14 goals in 44 Championship games last season,leading to him being named Leicester’s player of the season, and the players’ player of theseason.
