Chelsea has been hit by a devastating injury recently, with Levi Colwill on the sidelines for months with ACL damage. They need to sign a quality defender and Uruguay International should prove to be a great addition.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">He is at the peak of his strength, and he aims to make an immediate impact in the Premier League.
