Chelsea’s transfer spree has continued after completing the signing of Jamaican striker Dujuan ‘Whisper’ Richards.

The Phoenix All Stars Academy in Kingston, Jamaica announced on social media on Saturday evening that the teenage striker had agreed pre-contract terms with Chelsea.

Richards – who scored 31 goals and notched 19 assists last season for his current side – had recently been on trial in Newcastle’s academy and attended their 1-1 Premier League draw at St James’ Park last month, according to Evening Standard.

However, despite interest from Newcastle United, Richards has now signed a contract to join Chelsea.

“On behalf of the Phoenix All Stars Football Academy, I am proud to announce the signing of Dujuan “Whisper” Richards to Premier League giants Chelsea FC,” read a statement on Instagram.

“I am elated to be apart of history and to know that this is just the first step for Whisper as he’ll continue to develop and become the superstar he’s destined to be. Whisper I am proud of you. Heart and love every time.”
