Earlier this month, French newspaper L’Equipe claimed that Chelsea had agreed a £6m deal for the 22-year-old striker.
Reputed journalist Fabrizio Romano also claimed that the transfer is close to being done, with Chelsea currently in talks with Boca Juniors over a possible transfer in January.
According to reports from Argentina, Play Futbol, the striker has played his last match for Boca as he has been to advised to go to Italy to accelerate the process of getting the EU passport.
The report has been framed in a way where it gives the impression that the player is all set to join Chelsea, after a deal being agreed, for a reported fee in the region of €10m.
