Chelsea transfer target Boubacar Kamara has reportedly agreed to join Aston Villa in what is said to be a done deal. The talented Frenchman will join Steven Gerrard's side on a five-year deal which is said to be made official within the coming days.
Transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano broke the news whilst Premier League sides played in their last game of the season - with Chelsea securing their Champions League spot for next season.
But they'll go into the campaign without one reported target in Kamara, with Chelsea reportedly still in the market for a holding midfielder.

The 22-year-old midfielder has made 130 league appearances for Marseille since his debut six years ago, and has been credited for his defensive performances - ranking highly in tackles and pass completion over the last two seasons in Ligue 1.
Kamara was also linked with Manchester United, Tottenham and Arsenal, but has now reportedly chosen to join Aston Villa.
Chelsea could now turn their attentions to Aurelian Tchouameni - the Monaco holding midfielder who is likely to leave the club this summer with Liverpool and Chelsea showing interest.
It was reported earlier today that Chelsea have contacted Monaco about his availability - with a hefty price tag likely to be put on his head.
