Chelsea have signed Argentine goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez from Aston Villa in a £7.5m deal, the eighth between the two clubs in the past four years.
The 33-year-old World Cup winner has moved to Stamford Bridge on a three-year contract.
Martinez joined Villa in 2020 and made 256 appearances, helping the club win the Europa League last season.
"I'm delighted to be at this football club," Martinez said.
"Coming to Chelsea, for me and my family, was an easy decision to make and I'm just over the moon - I can't wait to get started.
'I want to be successful here. I'm someone who wants to win at everything I do and I want to bring that here to this football club because it's a football club that wins titles, so I think it's a good match."
