Official: Chelsea Agree £23.5m Fee For Juan Mata
By Rumour Monger
“Nothing really Matas, nothing really Matas to me…”
A small statement has appeared on the Chelsea website this morning to tell the waking world that the club has agreed a fee with Valencia for winger Juan Mata and that ‘the move is now subject to the player passing a medical and agreeing personal terms’ – in other words, it’s just a Mata of time.
No fee is specified but several reports in Spain are claiming that Chelsea have snared their man for somewhere around £23.5 million.
Which, of course, is awesome news to start the day. Excuse the graphic nature of the following sentence, but we’re fizzing in our special parts over the prospect of watching Mata up close week-in, week-out – make it so Chelsea.
Any thoughts Pies fans?

great news although thought arsenal were going to have a crack
Great news as a little chelsea fan!
A better choice than moutinho/pereira combo.
Bring Modric as well and i’m not so worried anymore.
AVB will sort things out, and tell anelka/drogba to perform or get out!
will be a rough start, but we know what really matters is the second half of the season.
Ah yes, Juan Manuel Mata.
True potential future Sex God apprentice understudy material.
He Mata started against the baggies if he had been here earlier…
Don’t forget about this video from the WC last year! This is against Raul Albiol I believe…

Rude. Valencia was very clear that Mata “was at Valencia and not for sale”. Maybe they should have clarified by saying “Mata is not for sale to Arsenal”. I hope he doesn’t pass his medical. Signed, a very Bitter Gooner.
