Chelsea have completed the signing of Enzo Fernandez from Benfica for a club-record fee of £106.7million - a move that also smashes the record fee spent in the Premier League.
The move comes after an intense transfer saga that went right down to the wire after initial negotiations with the Portuguese club were unsuccessful. Late in the window talks were revived, with the Blues' board fully geared towards landing the 21-year-old before the deadline.
Co-owners Todd Boehly and Behdad Eghbal appear to have been key players in the saga ending with one of the world's most promising youngsters moving to Stamford Bridge. The move helps strengthen a key area that has been neglected over recent seasons and needed fresh energy.
