Chelsea announce their SECOND signing of the day as Benfica teenager Diego Moreira joins - but fans are left puzzled by the arrival of Portugal U21 starlet who's made just TWO senior appearances

Chelsea have announced the signing of Benfica's little-known Diego Moreira, the second arrival of a busy day for the Blues.

The 18-year-old winger has made two senior appearances for the Portuguese outfit since the end of the 2021/22 season, but featured regularly for Benfica B.

It follows the addition of Norwich youngster Alex Matos, who joined on a free transfer and can operate in a variety of midfield or forward positions.

Mail Sport's Simon Jones had his finger on the pulse in April when he revealed in Transfer Confidential that Chelsea had put in place a deal to sign Moreira on a free transfer.
