Chelsea are nearing a deal for 16-year-old American prodigy Vicente Garcia, according to The Athletic.
The teenage midfielder, who signed a homegrown contract with LA Galaxy in January 2025 at just 14 years old, currently plays for Ventura County FC, the Galaxy’s reserve squad, but he is expected to join the MLS side at the beginning of 2027. He would then make the move to Stamford Bridge upon turning 18 for an anticipated fee of $3 million (£2.25 million), plus add-ons.
