'Who is this'

CHELSEA have announced the signing of Diego Moreira from Benfica.

He is currently on international duty in the European U-21 Championship.

Chelsea were linked with the winger earlier in the season but the official announcement of the deal has shocked some fans.

It comes on the same morning the Blues also signed Norwich wonderkid Alex Matos.

And they have already snapped up 15-year-old Kendry Paez this summer.

One said: "Who is this guy now??"

A second wrote: "Who are these guys."

Another baffled supporter added: "Who are these people signing???"

While one joked: "Who is this countryside musician?"

The incomings are part of a huge rebuild this summer under new boss Mauricio Pochettino.

Chelsea have already shifted six senior players this window.

Alongside the string of starlets, the Blues have so far brought in Christopher Nkunku and completed a seal for Villarreal striker Nicolas Jackson on Friday.
