Chukwuemeka had previously rejected a new contract at Villa, with it being understood he wanted £100,000 per week, and he has now agreed a six-year deal at Stamford Bridge.
The England Under 19 international admitted he is now relieved the deal has been done and that he can now finally fully focus on his game.
‘It’s been quite hectic but I couldn’t get Chelsea out of my head the last few days so I’m just happy and relieved that it’s all done’, he told Chelsea’s website.
‘I’m so excited and just can’t wait to get on the pitch, meet all the players and try to win games and trophies with Chelsea.’
AC Milan had offered £3m prior to Chelsea agreeing to meet Villa’s asking price.
Chukwuemeka had a year left on his Villa deal but had opted against signing an extension due to concerns about his playing time.
