Club World Cup: Gittens joins Chelsea squad ahead of semi-final

Chelsea manager, Enzo Maresca, has revealed that Jamie Gittens has joined up with his squad ahead of an official announcement of his transfer.

The Blues have reached an agreement with Borussia Dortmund for Gittens.

The 20-year-old was spotted on the pitch following Chelsea’s quarter-final win over Palmeiras.

After the 2-1 win, Maresca said: “Jamie was here tonight, he was on the pitch.

“And he will be with us probably one more day, two days more.

“Then he will go for a holiday and come back when we’re going to start the new season.”

Chelsea had hoped to sign Gittens in time to play a full part in the competition but a deal could not initially be struck.

It is instead set to be announced ahead of the semi-final against Fluminense next week.
