Chelsea close in on 3 players
Chelsea are having a busy window already with the signing and loaning of Christian Pulisic done, the Cesc Fabregas drama is unfolding. The Blues are looking to sign a replacement for him before he leaves and that has him stuck in the middle of nowhere.
Sky Sources claim that Chelsea are close to sealing the deal for Cagliari midfielder Nicolo Barella and Zenit St Petersburg midfielder Leandro Paredes. Manchester United are also interested in Barella but the Blues are close to finalizing the deal before the Red Devils can do anything about it.
Another player Chelsea are close to signing are Gonzalo Higuain. The former Real Madrid has given the green signal for the move according to Marca. The striker was a target in the summer as well but he claimed that only Sarri wanted him at the club and thus did not want to join them.
