Chelsea have signed Brazilian winger Angelo Gabriel from Santos.

Despite only being 18 years old, the Blues' new recruit has already racked up 129 first-team appearances for Santos in all competitions.

Indeed, he became the youngest player in the history of Brazil's national championship when he made his club debut against Fluminense aged just 15 years and 308 days.

The Brazil Under-20 international went on to become the youngest ever scorer in the Copa Libertadores in April 2021.

A left-footed winger who often played on the right side of Santos's attack, he scored five times for the team in total and claimed 10 assists.

Chelsea are next in pre-season action on Wednesday when they face Wrexham in the USA. 

Mauricio Pochettino's side will then take part in the Premier League Summer Series from 22-30 July, facing Brighton & Hove Albion, Newcastle United and Fulham.
