The talented young defender will stay on loan at Boca Juniors until January and he is expected to join up with the Blues after that. Anselmino is highly rated in South America and he should prove to be a quality long-term acquisition for Chelsea.
The Blues need to add more quality and depth to their defensive unit. They parted ways with Thiago Silva earlier this summer and Anselmino could be the ideal long-term replacement for the Brazilian.
The 19-year-old will be tempted to showcase his qualities in the Premier League in the near future. He has the physical and technical attributes to do well in English football, and he will look to establish himself as an indispensable asset for the club. Anselmino will be a future investment for Chelsea, and he has the potential to justify the $20 million investment in the coming seasons.
Anselmino will be a future prospect for Chelsea
Meanwhile, Chelsea have shown willingness to invest in talented young players in recent years, and they have added to the formidable pool of young talent at the club with the signing of Anselmino.
The fans will be excited to see their new signing in action in the near future, and they will hope that he can hit the ground running and adapt to English football quickly.
The defender was linked with other European heavyweights as well, but Chelsea have moved quickly to secure the services of the Argentine prodigy.

As for whether that story is actually true, that depends on which Osbourne you ask. Ozzy says yes, but Sharon isn’t sure. **From The Osbournes:** Jack: “Did you actually snort ants?” Ozzy: “Yeah.” Jack: “Did he actually snort ants Mom?” Sharon: “I was not there, thank God. I used to try and stay away from Motley when they were with Ozzy. I don’t know. All I know is that I think it made their movie. And I wanna know why, now we’re on the subject, of why, when they advertise their movie on Netflix, it’s a picture of a guy imitating Ozzy. Why isn’t the ad campaign a picture of Motley Crue?” Jack: “‘Cause Ozzy Osbourne’s bigger than Motley Crue.” Sharon: “No, the thing is, I just think it’s an invasion.” Ozzy: “No. No. No. Stop. Stop. Stop. Let’s move on.” Sharon: “Nikki Sixx. Ass****.” Ozzy: “No, he’s not.” Sharon: “Yes, he [bleeping] is.” Jack: “So, did Dad snort the line of ants?
