Chelsea FC Completes Signing of Jamie Bynoe‑Gittens
Chelsea FC has officially confirmed the acquisition of England Under‑21 winger Jamie Bynoe‑Gittens from Borussia Dortmund. The 20‑year‑old has secured a seven-year contract, keeping him at Stamford Bridge until 2032. The transfer deal includes a guaranteed £48.5 million fee, with an additional £3.5 million payable in performance‑based add‑ons .
Bynoe‑Gittens, a product of Manchester City’s academy who joined Dortmund in 2020, has featured prominently for the German club, amassing over 100 senior appearances and delivering 12 goals and three assists during the 2024–25 season . He recently celebrated with his new teammates during the Club World Cup in Philadelphia, though he remains ineligible to play in that tournament due to cup‑tie regulations .
This addition continues Chelsea’s aggressive recruitment push, which has seen the club invest more than €200 million across the summer window. Other offensive signings include Liam Delap, Dário Essugo, Mamadou Sarr, and João Pedro, all recently unveiled by manager Enzo Maresca . While the influx of attacking talent may result in a surplus of forward options, the club envisions Bynoe‑Gittens challenging for the starting left wing position .
