Completes Chelsea move
Delap completed a move to Chelsea from Ipswich Town, the club announced.
ANALYSIS
Delap is on the way to Chelsea after a single season in the top flight with Ipswich Town. He scored 12 goals and added two assists for Ipswich, who were relegated straight away. Delap will have plenty of competition for the starting striker job in London, namely with Nicolas Jackson, but given the move and Jackson's struggles in the team, he may have the leg up depending how preseason goes.
