London signed contracts with two new footballers: striker Fernando Torres was acquired from "Liverpool" for 58 million euros, and defender David Luiz was sold to Lisbon's "Benfica" for almost 25 million euros.
It is said that Torres will earn about 175 thousand pounds per week - his salary in Liverpool was significantly lower and amounted to 100 thousand pounds.
This will be the most expensive deal in the history of British football, and the next Sunday, "Chelsea" will host "Liverpool" at their stadium in an English championship match.
This season, Torres scored nine goals in 23 matches in the Premier League.
In addition, the English champions have been negotiating the purchase of Brazilian Luiz's contract for some time, but a few days ago it seemed that the deal would not happen. However, a compromise was found on the last day, and Luiz will move to London.
The Portuguese team will also transfer midfielder Nemanja Matic, who is currently on loan to the "Vitesse" team by "Chelsea."
