DONE DEAL: Chelsea sign Patrick Bamford from NUFC for £1.5m!

Just minutes ago, Chelsea conformed the signing of 18-year old British forward Patrick Bamford from Nottingham Forest FC. The NUFC striker signed a five-year deal for a total of £1.5 million. He has made two npower appearances for NUFC this season, scoring no goals. However, he made two appearances in the FA Youth Cup, scoring nine goals and assisting three in those two games. Wow. That's class. It's likely that he'll be loaned out soon, considering his age and the lack of experience. He seems to have quite a bit of talent though (and was attracting the likes of Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool, and Arsenal – hopefully he'll turn out to be a good signing.

Patrick Bamford.
