EMERSON PALMIERI is closing in on a move to Chelsea.
The Roma star has become a top target for Blues boss Antonio Conte in recent weeks.
The left-back will provide much-needed competition for Marcos Alonso at Stamford Bridge.
And according to the Evening Standard, Palmieri will fly to London today or tomorrow to complete his move to Chelsea.
They claim the defender will undergo a medical and agree personal terms in the next 48 hours.
Palmieri was an unused substitute in Roma’s 1-1 draw with Inter Milan last night and the club’s sporting director Monchi hinted he may have made his final appearance for the Serie A giants.
When asked if the defender was joining Chelsea, Monchi said: "Whatever will be will be.
"I work every day to have players suitable to replace our players, my job is always to strengthen my club.
Chelsea are back in action on Wednesday night when the Blues travel to Arsenal for their Carabao Cup semi-final second leg.
Should the Blues win, they will face either Manchester City or Bristol City in the final at Wembley.
