The transfer of Dutch footballer Arjen Robben from the London club Chelsea to Real Madrid has finally been agreed, according to various media reports on Thursday.


The Telegraaf says the Spanish side are paying €36m for Robben, 23, whose contract with Chelsea runs until mid 2009. He is expected to sign a five year deal with Real Madrid.
Robben is the fourth Dutch footballer to sign to the Spanish club. Earlier this month Royston Drenthe and Wesley Sneijder joined Ruud van Nistelrooij.
