Chelsea Snatch United Target

PSV desperately wanted to keep the 20-year old prodigy and were oh so close to completing a deal with Manchester United but Chelsea stepped in at the last minute and stroked up a deal with the Eindhoven club.

"Arjen is a top quality player who will become a major asset for our club in the years ahead." said Chelsea chief executive Peter Kenyon, who is thought to be a Judas for taking Roman Abramovich's millions and ditch his chief executive post at United for Chelsea. 

"It's an excellent example of how Chelsea is appealing to the new wave of European talent and our commitment to bring the best young players to Stamford Bridge as well cultivate the best, young English talent." he added. 

"This is a great signing for Chelsea. For his age, he shows great maturity and mental strength to go with his natural footballing skills." added Kenyon, who is speaking no lie.

"Arjen will be a fantastic addition to our squad. He is quick, strong, scores goals and makes goals. He can do everything." added Claudio Ranieri 

"His style is perfect for the Premier League and I am very happy that he wanted to come to us."

The attacking midfielder has scored 16 goals in 48 appearances for PSV and is a vital member of Dick Advocaat's Dutch team
