According to reports, Chelsea is getting closer to signing Leeds United winger Raphinha.
Gianluigi Longari claims that Chelsea has made a wage offer of £6 million per year to Raphinha and that they are close to reaching a personal agreement with the Brazilian.
Several of the major clubs in Europe have shown interest in Raphinha as a result of his performances for Leeds during the previous campaign.
The 25-year-old is eager to leave Leeds, and Chelsea is looking to add a forward to its assault after Romelu Lukaku left on loan to Inter Milan.

Raphinha moved from Rennes to Leeds United in 2020 for a cost of £17 million.
In his first season with Leeds, he scored six goals and recorded nine assists in 30 Premier League games.
