Ross Barkley has completed a £15 million move from Everton to Chelsea

Ross Barkley has completed a £15 million move from Everton to Chelsea after talks had failed in the summer transfer window.

Chelsea announced the transfer on Friday, confirming the 24-year-old midfielder had signed a five-and-a-half-year contract at Stamford Bridge.

The move was delayed due to Barkley's hamstring injury, but his improved condition has allowed Chelsea to complete a deal for the England international, who had just six months remaining on his Everton contract.
