Chelsea are reportedly making progress in negotiations over a potential transfer move for Real Madrid midfielder Casemiro.
The Brazil international looks like he could be allowed a move away from Madrid this summer, with the club happy with their other options in that area of the pitch, such as Eduardo Camavinga.
This could allow Chelsea to move in, according to Todo Fichajes, with the Blues described as making slow but steady progress in talks over signing Casemiro for a deal likely to cost around €50million.
There could be room for a signing like Casemiro at Stamford Bridge, with N’Golo Kante’s future looking slightly uncertain ahead of the summer.
