Chelsea
has completed the signing of Croatian midfielder Mateo Kovacic from Real Madrid
on a season-long loan.
The
24-year-old moves to London as part of the deal that saw goal stopper Thibaut
Courtois move in the opposite direction for £35million.
The
Croatian international who signed for Los Blancos in 2015, failed to establish
himself as a regular starter following his move from Inter Milan.
Kovacic told the club's official website: 'I
am really happy and excited to be here at Chelsea. It is an amazing feeling.
'I
will try to do my best for this club. It is a new league for me, the beginning
is always tough but I am sure the coach and my new team-mates will help me and
I am looking forward to a great season.'
