Chelsea set to complete signing of Guiu
Chelsea are set to complete the signing of Barcelona youngster Marc Guiu.
A release clause of around £5m in the 18-year-old striker’s contract has been activated by the Blues and he is set to undergo a medical.
Guiu has made seven first-team appearances for Barcelona, scoring twice, and has rejected the offer of a new contract at the Catalan club.
Meanwhile, Chelsea are interested in Nottingham Forest’s Brazilian defender Murillo.
The centre-back, who turns 22 next week, impressed for Forest in the Premier League last season.
He moved to the City Ground from Corinthians last summer, having been tracked by a number of other clubs.
Chelsea are keen to strengthen their options in central defence following the departure of veteran defender Thiago Silva.
The Blues recently signed Tosin Adarabioyo on a free transfer after he rejected a new contract at Fulham.
Murillo has been identified as another possible signing and Forest have been approached about a potential deal.
