The Blues are set to tie up the signing of Nigeria Under-20 international Omeruo, 18, and would then loan him to Dutch club ADO Den Haag.

"I hope all the paperwork is in place soon so he can join our squad," ADO Den Haag coach Maurice Steijn told Omroep West.

Chelsea are apparently intending to loan the centre-back to Den Haag until the end of the 2012-13 season.

Hopefully he will wipe our (Nigerian) shame from that Talent-forsaken club

Hope he will be utilized well and not converted to be a striker.

Thank God someone will be there to restore our glory in chelsea,after babayaro shut us to the limelight,mikel shamed us and brought us from grace to grass.Pls kenneth restore our pride

It is good for him and Nigeria.

Chelsea will kill the guy's future, but it's good for his profile. I wish he gets a little luckier than Mikel.

Its time for john terry to quit, because with this signing his days are numbered.
