Brazilian midfielder Andrey Santos is set to sign a five year Chelsea contract after passing his Chelsea medical, according to Brazilian journalist Vene Casagrande.

Chelsea will pay Vasco da Gama a fixed fee of €12.5million for the transfer of Santos to Stamford Bridge.

Former Brazil midfielder Juninho Pernambucano has given his verdict on new Chelsea midfielder Andrey Santos.

Juninho Pernambucano on Chelsea’s new signing Andrey Santos: “I’ve never seen a player, at 18, as ready as he is.

“Physically, he’s a beast, technically he’s on a high level. He’s not going to be better than me, he’s going to be much better than me.”
