Speculation has been building for weeks, with the South American youngster appearing at most of the Blues’ fixtures in the past month.

The 19-year-old, who goes by Nathan for short, joins the club from Atletico Paranaense in Brazil, where he has spent six years of his career.

Though we wait for confirmation from the club itself, the fee is reportedly in the region of £5m for the wonderkid.

Nathan posted these words to Instagram:
