Chelsea have agreed a deal to sign Abdul Baba Rahman, German newspaper Bild have reported.
The Ghana left-back, 21, has long been tipped to complete a move to Stamford Bridge.
And it has been reported that he will join the Blues from Augsburg for around £21.5m.
The Daily Mail have subsequently reported that the deal will involve an initial £14m, with a possible £3.5m to follow and £700,000 after Rahman plays 20 games, plus a further £3.5m after he has made 100 appearances.
Chelsea have been looking to sign another left-back since selling Filipe Luis back to Atletico Madrid during the summer.
They are also keen to sign England defender John Stones from Everton.
It has been widely reported that Everton will receive – and reject – another bid from Chelsea for Stones, this time worth £30m.
