Chelsea have confirmed the signing of promising young striker Daniel Sturridge on a four-year deal after his contract expired at Manchester City.
The two clubs could not agree a fee for the 19-year-old, his age means City are entitled to some recompense, and will be settled by a tribunal.
Sturridge, nephew of former Derby forward Dean, made 26 appearance for City last season, scoring four times.
The England Under-20 forward will now join up with the rest of the first-team squad when they return for the start of pre-season training next week.
