He will be presented on Friday at the club’s Butarque Sports Facility.

Leganes will have a buy-option on Omeruo set at €5m, but complete with a 20% sell-on clause as well should he transfer out from Leganes in the future.

Omeruo joined Chelsea in 2012, and has since endured loan spells in Holland, Turkey and England,

The Nigeria defender has never featured for Chelsea’s first-team.
