Chelsea are closing in on the signing of Monaco star Benoit Badiashile after agreeing a £33.6million transfer fee. The Blues have already completed a deal for David Datro Fofana and remain in talks to sign Enzo Fernandez from Benfica.
Chelsea have agreed a €38million (£33.6million) deal with AS Monaco for Badiashile, football.london understands. The defender is set to sign a six-and-a-half year deal at Stamford Bridge after agreeing personal terms with Graham Potter's side and completing a medical in London earlier this week.
Kalidou Koulibaly, Wesley Fofana and Marc Cucurella were all signed in the summer as Boehly now finalises his fourth defensive signing since completing a £4.25billion takeover at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea had identified the France international as a key defensive reinforcement following the injury to Fofana.
