Chelsea complete Mata deal

Juan Mata has completed his £26 million move from Valencia to Chelsea and will be available for Saturday's Premier League match against Norwich at Stamford Bridge.

Spain international Mata has signed a five-year contract and becomes Chelsea's fourth signing of the summer following the arrivals of Oriol Romeu, Romelu Lukaku and goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois.

Former Real Madrid youngster Mata scored 34 goals in 179 appearances during his four years at the Mestalla.

The 23-year-old is viewed as one of the hottest prospects in world football after back-to-back summers in which picked up the 2010 World Cup and the European Under-21 Championship title.
