The French attacking midfielder Franck Ribery has signed on to join the London giants Chelsea for a mega 46 million euro bid with Joe Cole moving to the German team and the loan of Portuguese Deco.
Chelsea's owner Roman Abramovic travelled to Germany to offer 39 million euros and the loan of Deco but later on, the amount rose to 46 milllion and the transfer of Joe Cole was added to Deco's loan.
Franck Ribery arrived at London and has yet to be medically tested before being presented to the fans and the press.
As for new Bayern's coach Louis Van Gaal: "Franck really wanted to go so I couldn't stand in his way. Plus, we have now two new great players and we are 46 million euros richer", he said laughing.
