Chelsea
have completed the signing of Nantes defender Papy Djilobodji, according to
the French club.
A Nantes statement said the Senegal international has signed a four-year
contract with Chelsea, while Sky sources say the fee is £2.7m.
The 26-year-old, who was in the final year of his Nantes deal, is Chelsea's
sixth signing of the transfer window.
The deal for Djilobodji was done after Everton's refusal to sanction the
sale of England centre-half John Stones.
