Done Deal! Fans React On Twitter As Chelsea Confirm Swap Deal

As per reports from Guardian and Telegraph, Chelsea confirm a swap deal to bring in Stoke city keeper Asmir Begovic to replace Petr Cech as a deputy to first choice keeper Thibaut Courtois. The deal will see Dutch International Marco van Ginkel move the other way on a season long loan deal. The midfielder was on loan at Milan last season, but a move to a Premier League club looks like a win win situation for both the parties.

BBC have confirmed that van Ginkel and Begovic’s replacement Shay Given have joined Stoke City and it’s only a matter of time, before Chelsea announce it on their official website.

Here are some of the reactions from Twitter,

The Begovic deal is perfect, valuable experience for V. Ginkel in the PL and we get a top goal keeper. #CFC #Begovic

#Cudicini on #Begovic to #CFC: "If you are a goalkeeper that wants to prove himself, it’s a club where you can definitely be tested."
