Chelsea have agreed a deal with Borussia Dortmund to sign Jamie Gittens.
Talks had been progressing in the US, where both teams are taking part in the Club World Cup and despite Bayern Munich also being interested, a deal has now been agreed for the 20-year-old to move to Stamford Bridge.
Earlier this month, Dortmund turned down an offer worth £42m, and the two clubs were unable to agree a deal before the first window closed on 10 June.
An eventual agreement between the two sides comes amid the west London club's search to strengthen wide areas following the decision not to take up the option to sign Jadon Sancho permanently.
