Chelsea sign Samuel Eto’o

Chelsea F.C. have completed the signing of Samuel Eto’o from Russian Premier League strugglers Anzhi Makhachkala for an undisclosed fee, according to the club’s official website, www.chelseafc.com.
 
Eto’o, who became the world’s highest paid footballer — with an annual salary of €20 million (after taxes) — after joining Anzhi from F.C. Internazionale Milano on a three-year deal in the summer of 2011, has signed a one-year contract at Stamford Bridge.
 
The Cameroon international, 32, will cost the Blues a fee in the region of £5 million, according to reports.
 
“I am very happy to be here but also anxious because I want to get playing as soon as possible,” said Eto’o.
 
“It wasn’t a hard decision. I saw the qualities Chelsea have, and I was very happy with Jose Mourinho before, so when the opportunity came, I was very happy to take it.”
