03Chelsea Football Club has completed the signing of Cristian Cuevas from Chilean club O'Higgins.However it is likely that Chelsea will immediately loan out this player because Cuevas will need a work permit in order to play in England, and the announcement from the club makes no mention of that. It is now somehow clear that loaning the player out is what they intend to do.
The 18-year-old has signed a contract until 2018. He came through the youth ranks at O'Higgins before breaking into the first team and playing in the top flight in Chile.
At the FIFA Under-20 World Cup this summer he played in four of his nations' five games as Chile made it to the quarter-finals before losing to Ghana.
At 5ft 7in tall he plays primarily as a left-back but can also operate as a left-winger.
