    (Reuters) - Chelsea have signed United States left back Caleb Wiley from Major League Soccer side Atlanta United on a six-year contract, the Premier League club said on Monday.

    Chelsea did not disclose the financial details, but British media reported the deal was worth around 8.5 million pounds ($11 million).

    A product of Atlanta's academy, Wiley made his MLS debut in 2022 and has made 85 appearances, scoring six goals.

    He made his U.S. debut last year in a 1-1 draw against Mexico.

    Wiley is with the U.S. squad in Paris as they prepare for the Olympic Games.
