Deal Very Close: Chelsea transfer is now just a ‘question of hours’

Sevilla president Jose Castro has confirmed that the club is very close to completing the transfer move of Chelsea forward Gael Kakuta. The Andalusian club are also working hard on signing Dnipro’s Yevhen Konoplyanka.

“It’s very close and we can say it’s a question of hours (before it is confirmed). With the Ukrainian (on Konoplyanka) we’re working hard as we are in other areas of the team,” said club president Jose Castro.

Last week, Sevilla’s Sporting director Monchi said in an interview with AS that the club is closing on a deal for Kakuta.
