Chelsea have officially completed the signing of promising English winger Jamie Bynoe-Gittens from Borussia Dortmund, marking one of their most high-profile acquisitions of the summer so far. The 20-year-old arrives at Stamford Bridge in a deal reportedly valued at £55 million, which includes various performance-based clauses. Bynoe-Gittens has signed a long-term contract running until 2032, signaling the club’s belief in his potential and long-term value.
The former Dortmund starlet had already sparked rumours before the announcement, having been seen celebrating with Chelsea players after their Club World Cup win over Palmeiras. Although he was not eligible to feature in the match due to prior European commitments, his appearance on the pitch led many to speculate that a transfer was imminent—speculation which has now been confirmed by both clubs.
Following the announcement, the England U-21 international shared his excitement about joining the Premier League side. He described the move as a “dream step” in his career and said he was eager to grow under Chelsea’s new setup. Manager Enzo Maresca welcomed the addition, praising Bynoe-Gittens’ speed, ball control, and sharp decision-making, which he believes will add a new layer to Chelsea’s attacking options.
Bynoe-Gittens brings top-flight and Champions League experience to an evolving Chelsea squad that is clearly building for the future. He joins a growing list of exciting young players at the club and is expected to compete for a starting role on the wing this coming season. With the Premier League campaign fast approaching, fans will be eager to see how quickly the talented winger settles into life in London.
