Brazil midfielder Oscar last night completed a switch from Internacional to European champions Chelsea, the English Premier League club said on their website.

Oscar dos Santos Emboaba Junior, to give him his full name, spent last season with Internacional of Porto Alegre, having started out with Sao Paulo.
