Transfer: Premier League club announces departure of Chelsea-bound Nigeria-eligible defender

Fulham has officially announced the departure of Tosin Adarabioyo from the club.

This was disclosed on the club's official website on Wednesday, June 5, alongside the departure of 10 other players.

The 26-year-old has already agreed on personal terms with Chelsea to move to Stamford Bridge next season.

The former Manchester City defender reportedly completed his medical with the Blues on Tuesday and is set to become Enzo Maresca's first summer signing.

Adarabioyo scored 2 goals in 22 appearances for the Craven Cottage outfit in the recently concluded Premier League season.

Manchester United and Newcastle United were the two clubs who were reportedly monitoring Adarabio's situation at Fulham.

He will join Chelsea as a free agent, with an official announcement expected soon.
