Young goalkeeper Matej Delac has completed his move to Chelsea and has been loaned out to Vitesse Arnhem for the season.

The 18-year-old shot-stopper has signed for the Stamford Bridge outfit after being subject to a pre-contract agreement following a spell training with the club in December.

A Croatia Under-20 international, Delac was also called up to the full squad by Slaven Bilic for two 2010 World Cup qualifiers.

He joins from Croatian side Inter Zapresic where he had just completed a full campaign in the first-team.

Delac will now go out to Vitesse in the Dutch Eredivisie, and becomes the third Chelsea player currently on loan in the division.
