Chelsea have reached an agreement with Villarreal to sign their star striker Nicolas Jackson for over over €35m.
The Blues will pay a little over the player's release clause which is €35m (£30m/$38m) and will complete the payment in installments. Chelsea have agreed personal terms with Jackson and a medical will be scheduled soon according to Fabrizio Romano.
With Jackson now set to head to Stamford Bridge, Kai Havertz's departure from the club is imminent with the German international strongly linked with a move to Arsenal.
The 22-year-old forward, who was close to joining Bournemouth in January this year, scored 12 La Liga goals in 26 appearances for Villarreal.
He is likely to be a quality addition to Mauricio Pochettino's squad this season.
