Left-back Pep Chavarria is expected to sign for Chelsea from Rayo Vallecano. The 28-year-old Spaniard is closing in on a move to England.

Chavarria is coming off a strong season, featuring in 44 matches in all competitions, scoring one goal and providing three assists. He also reached the Conference League final with the Madrid club.

He extended his contract until 2030 last summer.

He is understood to be in London to complete the move and is expected to replace Marc Cucurella, who has joined Real Madrid.
