Football: Chelsea close to super striker talks
Chelsea have made an approach to sign Brazilian sensation Kenedy, his representative has confirmed, according to the Metro.
The Fluminense ace is one of the most exciting players in South America – and he destined to move to Europe this summer.
Manchester United have already made a £5.7million bid, and now the 19-year-old’s representative says Chelsea have made an approach.
"There was contact with Chelsea recently," said Eduardo Valdes.
"It was through Deco, who is now his agent. It was an approach, not a formal offer though.
"Half of Europe is following him."
Valdes also revealed Kenedy’s price tag, adding that Fluminense want ‘about £9.2million’ to do business.
