The 27-year-old successfully completed a medical yesterday and has signed a four-year deal at Stamford Bridge after the Blues agreed an undisclosed fee with French champions Lyon.

New blue: Florent Malouda has completed his move to Chelesa

He will fly out to Los Angeles today to join the rest of the squad for their three-game pre-season tour of the US.

Malouda was part of the France team that made it to the final of last year's World Cup in Germany and has accumulated 30 caps in all, scoring three goals.

Both Chelsea and Lyon revealed on Sunday that a fee had been agreed, with the French club's president Jean-Michel Aulas insisting: "It (the deal) is brilliant and it is good news for Flo."

Malouda will team up with former team-mates Michael Essien and Didier Drogba at Stamford Bridge.

Meanwhile, Chelsea have confirmed that defender Khalid Boulahrouz will not travel across the Atlantic as negotiations with several clubs over a transfer continue.
