Chelsea have not disclosed the value of the young midfielder’s contract.
Chukvimika will be Chelsea’s third signing this summer after Napoli’s Senegalese defender Kalidou Koulibaly and Manchester City’s Raheem Sterling.
Chukvemitsa plays well in midfield and has only made 16 appearances for Aston Villa’s first team since his ascension in the summer of 2020.
Chukwimika is the son of Aston Villa, where he was included in the team’s roster and overall featured in the team’s jersey in 71 matches, scoring 13 goals and scoring 14 others.
