Chelsea have left Barcelona fuming after raiding their academy to sign exciting winger Josi Quintero.
The 17-year-old was rated as one of the hottest prospects in Barca’s famed La Masia youth system – but the Blues have managed to convince him to quit the Spanish club and move to England.
Arsenal and French club Lyon were also rumoured to be keen on bagging the prospect, who is famed for his speed and brilliant dribbling ability.
But Quintero announced last week that he was holding talks with Chelsea and now the transfer has now been completed, with the player posting snaps on Twitter showing him signing the contract.
The Ecuador-born winger is rated as the hottest prospect to come out of the country since Antonio Valencia.
