Chelsea have bagged striker 18 year old Franco Di Santo in a four-and-a-half year deal!

He's played for Argentina's Under-20s and is 6ft 4in in height..

Di Santo's signing takes the spending by Avram Grant, the Chelsea manager, to �27 million in the January transfer window, having already snapped up Nicolas Anelka, the France striker, from Bolton Wanderers for �15m and Branislav Ivanovic, the Serbia defender, for �9m.

PEople are comparing him to the likes of messi and maradona with his quick feet.. I wonder if he will live up to it?

I'll give him a year and a half before I see him on the bench or starting

Imagine if Maradona was 6ft 4; no need for "the hand of god"
