'It's a VERY risky thing': Chelsea's decision to hand new signing Benoit Badiashile a seven-and-a-half year deal is branded 'absolutely INSANE' by fans - as they warn the Blues about Alan Pardew's eight-year contract at Newcastle!

Football fans have mocked Chelsea for giving new signing Benoit Badiashile a seven-and-a-half year deal - highlighting how such a long contract can cause significant problems down the line.

Graham Potter's side confirmed the £35million signing of the 21-year-old on Thursday after reaching an agreement to sign him earlier this week.

The Blues have been looking for a left-sided centre-back since the summer and were unable to agree a deal with RB Leipzig for the Croatian World Cup star Josko Gvardiol.
