Roma striker, Edin Dzeko has agreed a
move to Chelsea this January.
Manager, Antonio Conte is in search of a
back-up striker to support Alvaro Morata
for the remainder of the 2017/18 campaign
with names such as Andy Carroll, Peter
Crouch and Jamie Vardy being mentioned
but it’s understood the Blues are closing in
on a deal for Dzeko.
Italian outlet, Gianluca Di Marzio, claims
Dzeko has reached an agreement with
Chelsea and said “yes” to Conte over a
move to Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea are also keen on signing Dzeko’s
team-mate at Roma, Emerson Palmieri, and
talks over a double deal are set to resume
next week.
It’s understood that Roma want a combined
fee of around £44million from Chelsea for
the duo, while out-of-favour Michy
Batshuayi could complete a loan move in
the opposite direction.
