Chelsea player to undergo medical today, transfer very close

Chelsea midfielder Gael Kakuta should complete his move to La Liga side Sevilla later today, as he has arrived in Spain to complete his medical. Sevilla have confirmed on their official website that they expect the procedure to go forward without any problems and the paperwork to be subsequently signed. An exact transfer fee has yet not been disclosed.

Once billed as a bright talent for the future at Stamford Bridge, Kakuta never managed to play regularly for the first-team. He joined the club’s Academy at the age of 16 back in 2007, but has managed 6 appearances for the Blues in the Premier League in 8 years.
