Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti is set to step up his pursuit of Sergio Aguero after the club had its transfer embargo lifted.
FIFA had hit the Blues with a transfer ban following the Gael Kakuta saga but they have now been cleared of any wrong doing by the Court of Arbitration for Sport and Ancelotti is targeting a transfer spree.
Ancelotti kept his powder dry in the January even though the ban had been lifted temporarily but that will not be the case in the summer now the ban has been lifted for good and Atletico Madrid striker Aguero is high on his list of targets.
Chelsea chairman Bruce Buck said: "We are pleased to have come to an amicable resolution of the matter and that it has been ratified by CAS and recognised by FIFA.
"It was always our intention to work together with Lens to reach this end. Both clubs have strengthened their relationship as a result of resolving this case to everyone's satisfaction.
"In an act of good faith and with a view to the possibility of future collaboration with Lens, and without recognising any liability, Chelsea has agreed to pay compensation costs for the training given to the player while at Lens, as mandated by FIFA in its original ruling."
