Golovin sees Chelsea switch 'confirmed' by CSKA team-mate

Aleksandr Golovin looks to be on his way to Chelsea, if a social media post from CSKA Moscow team-mate Sergey Chepchugov is anything to go by.

Russia international Golovin has been linked with a move to a major European side after impressing for his country in their surprise run to the World Cup quarter-finals.

The 22-year-old has been widely tipped to join Maurizio Sarri's Chelsea - with Goal revealing in late June that a deal was close - with the Blues having already moved to strengthen their midfield options with the signing of Jorginho from Napoli.
