In his four-and-a-half years at the club, Oscar lifted the Premier League, League Cup and Europa League, while twice winning Chelsea's Goal of the Season award.
Oscar will join up with former Chelsea boss Andre Villas-Boas -- now manager at Shanghai SIPG -- and compatriot Hulk, who signed for the club in June for a then Asian record fee of $61 million.
The Brazilian will move to Shanghai on January 1 and earn a reported $491,000-a-week, making him one of the world's highest paid players, although the club didn't confirm a transfer fee.
Oscar and his new teammates will then travel to Doha two days later for the club's winter training schedule, Shanghai SIPG confirmed to CNN.
