Chelsea have announced on the club website that Joel Philbert has left the club and completed a permanent transfer to Tottenham Hotspur after the Spurs made their moves to get a transfer deal done.
The January transfer window has been open for weeks now, and despite all the rumours, despite all the speculation, Chelsea have not managed to bring anybody to the club that will have the ability to make an immediate impact on the side, but they have let a few players leave on loan and on a permanent basis.
There are alot of rumours about players could buy before the deadline on Monday, and many fans were hoping that the board made the decision to bring in a few players rather than let some more young stars leave the club.
But after a few days of talks, CHELSEA have announced on the club website that Joel Philbert has left the club, the Blues posted: ‘Signed aged 14 during the 2023/24 season, Philbert was developed in our Academy and made the step up to feature for our Under-18s during the following campaign.
‘He featured on four occasions in the Under-18 Premier League, scoring once, and also represented the side this season.
‘We thank Joel for his efforts during his time at the club and wish him as he takes the next step in his career’
Tottenham posted: ‘We’re delighted to announce the signing of Joel Vidal-Philbert, who joins our Academy from Chelsea.
‘The 17-year-old winger, with the Blues since his Under-15 year, made his Under-18 Premier League debut last season while still a schoolboy and scored his first goal at that level against Brighton & Hove Albion in January, 2025.
‘An England Under-16 international, he went full-time at CHELSEA last summer and links up with our Under-18s squad at Hotspur Way.
‘Welcome, Joel!’
