Deivid Washington is one of Chelsea's youngest Brazilian hotshots under Todd Boehly.

Chelsea confirmed the signing of the 18-year-old forward on Thursday afternoon on a 7+1 year contract.

Chelsea faced stiff competition from AS Monaco for Deivid.

Although Deivid Washington is one name unfamiliar to Chelsea fans, we'll take a brief look into his profile and just why he is the perfect choice for Chelsea.

How good is Deivid and where does he play?

Deivid primarily operates as a centre-forward but is versatile enough to be deployed on either wing, too, potentially making him an extremely useful attacking option for the Blues.

Deivid made his professional debut in April and has gone on to feature 16 times for the Santos first team in all competitions, scoring twice.

He scored on each of his first two starts for the iconic club from Sao Paulo, who have boasted such superstars as Pele and Neymar over the years.
