Chelsea are set to add another emerging talent to their ranks.
Manchester City attacker Cole Palmer will undergo a medical ahead of completing a £40-million move to Stamford Bridge, according to transfer insider Fabrizio Romano. The fee could rise to £45 million after add-ons.
Chelsea’s initial offer of £35 million was rejected by last season’s treble winners earlier Wednesday, The Guardian’s Jacob Steinberg reported. However, the Blues acted swiftly to strike a deal ahead of Friday’s deadline.
