The Premier League club confirmed the signing on Sunday, although the specific details of the transfer were not disclosed. However, according to reports from British media, Chelsea invested 15 million euros ($16.84 million) to secure the services of the 18-year-old player from the Brazilian Serie A side.

Furthermore, Angelo Gabriel's exceptional talent and skills were not limited to domestic competitions. He also holds the distinction of being the youngest player to score in the history of Copa Libertadores, further highlighting his potential and ability to perform on the grandest stage.
