OM: Chelsea have made their offer for Filip Jörgensen

Once courted by Olympique de Marseille, whose project interested him, Filip Jorgensen will not be joining France. The 22-year-old Danish goalkeeper, who had just extended his contract (on June 13th!) with Villarreal, is heading to England. He has just signed with Chelsea.

Although the length of his commitment to the Blues was not specified in the press release, the English press is talking about a 6-year contract. The English club paid no less than €25 million for the player who will have to compete with Robert Sánchez and Djordje Petrovic.
