€20m Deal In Place By Chelsea, Move To Be Completed On Monday

Brazilian international Filipe Luís is all set to leave Chelsea with Baba Rahman set to replace him, has been the main story for almost a week. There have been plenty of claims going around that the former Atletico Madrid left-back will be returning to Spain, though there have not been too many concrete reports about the 21-year old Rahman’s move to Stamford Bridge yet.

Rahman is a highly rated Ghana international left-back, who enjoyed an impressive breakthrough season in the German top-flight last year with Augsburg.

Despite all the speculations, the Oracle has confirmed a few hours ago that the youngster has agreed personal terms with the Blues.

Mourinho’s club has a meeting scheduled on Monday with Ausgburg to complete the deal for Baba. Chelsea already reached an agreement with the player on a 5 year deal worth €2 million net a season, according to Gianluca Di Marzio.

The German outfit are looking to cash in on their star and are demanding a price of €20m, which will force the Portuguese boss to splash out some cash for his summer target. However, the remuneration received for Luis’s transfer would be more than enough for the Blues to complete the business.
