Reports in January had alleged the Blues were tracking the 17-year-old midfielder, who is currently plying his trade for Chilean side Unión Española.
The talented youngster has now come out to confirm his move to Stamford Bridge at the end of the current season in a reported £1.7 million deal.
"Everything went very quickly and everything was settled this week," he told Radio Cooperativa.
"Chelsea were following me for over a year and we finally reached an agreement.
"I am already taking English classes so I can integrate quickly. It will be a big change. I could account for all the differences there were when I was there. But I am calm and very happy," he added.
Cuevas, meanwhile, is the second young player scheduled to join the European champions for the start of the 2013/14 season, following the capture of Brazilian youngster Wallace earlier in December.
