Chelsea are reportedly edging closer to completing the signing of winger Raphinha from Leeds United.
According to Gianluigi Longari, Chelsea have offered a £6million per year salary package to Raphinha and are believed to be close to agreeing personal terms with the Brazilian.
Raphinha has been the subject of interest from a number of Europe’s top clubs, thanks to his performances for Leeds last season.
The 25-year-old is keen to leave Leeds and Chelsea wants to sign a forward to bolster their attack line following the departure of Romelu Lukaku to Inter Milan on loan.
Raphinha joined Leeds United from Rennes for £17 million back in 2020.
He netted six goals and registered nine assists in 30 Premier League games in his debut season for Leeds.
