After winning the Premier League title, Chelsea are looking to further strengthen their squad by signing Sevilla winger Vitolo. The 27-year-old was one of Jorge Sampaoli's most consistent performers last season, scoring six goals and assisting a further six in 25 starts in LaLiga.
Las Palmas-born, the player has a 40 million euro release clause in his contract and that is something that Chelsea would be willing to pay, according to the Daily Star. He would also add depth to the attack as the London club look to retain their Premier League crown and have a successful run in the Champions League.
Atletico Madrid were believed to be very close to his capture, but the deal has been complicated due to the transfer ban that was handed down by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).
In addition, Chelsea are on the verge of bringing in Monaco midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko and Juventus wing-back Alex Sandro.
