Chelsea are keen on a move for Arsenal wonderkid Khayon Edwards, despite the transfer restrictions hanging over the west London club.
The Blues are operating under a restricted licence, put in place after owner Roman Abramovich was added to the UK government's list of sanctioned individuals. Under the terms, only transfer payments agreed before March 10 can be ratified, but the Blues' new owners are expected to invest in the squad as soon as possible.
Several candidates remain in the hunt as the sale draws closer, with each of the interested parties submitting their final bids this month. Once the sale is completed, and if transfer business is back on the table right away, youngster Edwards could move across town after performances which have seen him compared to Gunners star Bukayo Saka.
