Manchester United and Borussia Dortmund were interested in signing the midfielder, but Chelsea have won the race by making first contact. The youngster is one of the most highly rated attacking midfielders from Ecuador, and has made three first team appearances, scoring one goal. 

He has attracted a lot of praise for his talent, and is expected to be a bright prospect for the club under their new model.

He has been sent back on loan to Vasco da Gama, and is expected to move to England in the summer when the transfer window opens.
