Chelsea has completed the signing of Barcelona forward Pedro in a deal worth €30 million ($33.5M), both clubs have confirmed.
The Spain international was allowed to miss training on Thursday to finalize the move, flying into London to undergo a medical after Chelsea hijacked Manchester United's bid to sign him at the 11th hour.
"I am very happy to be here," Pedro told the Blues' official website. "I am very excited to start my adventure at Chelsea and I am here to keep winning titles.
"Thanks to the club and the supporters for giving me the opportunity to put the blue shirt on.
