\"footballLondon: Capital football club Chelsea announced that Brazilian attacking midfielder Oscar will join Chinese Super League<\/a> (CSL) club Shanghai SIPG in January, it was announced on Friday.<\/p>\n

“Chelsea Football Club and Shanghai SIPG have agreed terms for the permanent transfer of Oscar. The 25-year-old will join the Chinese Super League team at the beginning of the January transfer window,” Chelsea said on their website.<\/p>\n

Oscar joined Chelsea from Internacional in the summer of 2012. During his four-year stint at the London club, he has made 203 appearances, scoring 38 goals and winning the English Premier League, the Europa League and the English Football League (EFL) Cup.<\/p>\n

According to English media reports, Chelsea will earn above $60 million for the sale of Oscar, whose playing time has reduced since head coach Antonio Conte’s 3-4-3 formation switch. Chelsea are now top of the table.<\/p>\n

With this move to China, Oscar will also benefit financially as he will reportedly earn 400,000 pounds (around $490,000) per week.<\/p>\n

He will be following a growing number of Brazil internationals to join Chinese clubs in recent years. Other Brazilians currently in the Shanghai SIPG squad are forwards Elkeson and Hulk, reports Xinhua.<\/p>\n

Shanghai SIPG finished third in the Chinese Super League this year and last month appointed former Chelsea coach Andre Villas-Boas to replace Sven-Goran Eriksson.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
