Chelsea have agreed terms with Shanghai Shenhua for the sale of Nicolas Anelka in January's transfer window.The Chinese Super League club reported this morning that Anelka would sign a two-year contract next month after recently having a transfer request accepted by the Blues.
And Chelsea have confirmed they have agreed a deal for the French striker's permanent transfer when the transfer window opens.
Anelka is in the final year of his Stamford Bridge contract and it became clear earlier this season that his three-year stay with the Blues would not be extended.
Former Arsenal, Real Madrid, Manchester City and France star Anelka has already been welcomed by his prospective new team-mates, with captain Yu Tao writing on Weibo, the Chinese equivalent of Twitter: "It's impossible not to be excited by this - a warm welcome to our new team-mate!"
