Official: Felipe Luis moves to "Chelsea" team

"Atletico" Madrid announced on their official website that Felipe Luis is traveling to England for a medical check-up and to join London's "Chelsea".

Rumors about the 28-year-old footballer's move to the "blues" have been circulating for a long time. According to "Rojiblancos", the Brazilian decided to go to London of his own will.

It is believed that "Chelsea" paid 20 million pounds for the left-back. F. Luis was purchased as a replacement for Ashley Cole, who left for "Roma".

The "Atletico" full-back wore the team's jersey for four seasons, having been bought from "Deportivo" in La Coruna in 2010. During this time, he played 180 matches and scored five goals.
