Inter Milan and Palermo were heavily interested in signing him, but as it stands now, the 22-year-old Boca Juniors striker is heading towards Premier League instead with Chelsea.
Few days back, L’Equipe reported that Chelsea had agreed to pay in the region of £6m for the Argentine striker.
Although the deal is far from being done, several reports suggest that Chelsea are close to completing the deal.
Reputed journalist Fabrizio Romano claims that Chelsea are in talks at the moment to sign the Argentine. And the striker is expected to arrive in January and then possibly return on loan to Boca.
