Chelsea finally confirm that they have agreed terms to sign Lille star Eden Hazard following months of speculation.

Chelsea have confirmed that they have agreed a deal with Lille for playmaker Eden Hazard.

Reports emerged earlier today claiming that the 21-year-old was due to undergo a medical with the Champions League winners ahead of a proposed move.

"I'm delighted to finally arrive here, it's a wonderful club and I can't wait to get started," Hazard told the club's official website.

The Belgium international kept everyone guessing in recent months as to which Premier League club he was going to join, with Manchester City and Manchester United also being in the running for the highly-regarded playmaker.

Despite interest from a number of clubs, Hazard announced at the end of last month that he had chosen the London club.

Hazard will officially become a Chelsea player in July.
