Chelsea firm favourites to land Kenedy

Cape Town - Chelsea have reportedly agreed a deal to sign Fluminese’s 19-year-old star Kenedy.

Brazilian Under-20 forward Kenedy will join the Premier League champions this month, reports the Daily Mail.

The Blues look certain to add to their growing Brazilian contingent at Stamford Bridge as Kenedy will link up with national U20 teammate Nathan - along with Willian, Oscar, Ramires, Filipe Luis, Lucas Piazon and Wallace at the London club.

Fluminese last week sold the rights to Kenedy to an investment company, who are expected to conclude a deal with Chelsea.

Nathan recently joined Jose Mourinho's squad from Atletico Paranaense.

The English newspaper believes that Manchester United, Barcelona, Juventus and Wolfsburg were among a host of clubs that were interested in the attacking winger.
