Chelsea are zoning in on their first signing of the Enzo Maresca era as, according to Sky Sports, Fulham defender Tosin Adarabioyo is set to complete his medical at Stamford Bridge next week before putting pen to paper on a long-term deal.
Formerly of Manchester City, the 26-year-old has enjoyed a quietly brilliant campaign under Marco Silva in 2023/24 and, as a result, had piqued serious interest from some of the top Premier League sides – Manchester United and Newcastle United included.
Maresca and his entourage, who is set to be announced as Chelsea’s new manager when the paperwork has been finalised, have won the race for his sought-after signature, however. Manchester-born Adarabioyo is, according to BBC Sport, keen on the move to the five-time Premier League champions.
