Chelsea are in advanced talks to sign the talented 18-year-old Andrey Santos, who is expected to join the club during the January transfer window.
At 18 years old, Santos has already played 41 games for Vasco da Gama, scoring eight goals. Playing so regularly at such a young age shows a lot about Santos’ talent, and it’s not surprising to hear that several clubs are showing interest in the midfielder.
Now a report in the Evening Standard claims that Chelsea are expected to win the race to sign Santos for a fee of around £12m.
