Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher has agreed to join Atletico Madrid, according to Fabrizio Romano.
The England international is currently in the last year of his contract and he looks set to part ways with the Blues.
The London giants recently agreed a deal worth €35m and Gallagher has now accepted terms on a long-term contract.
Tottenham and Aston Villa were aiming to hijack the transfer, but Gallagher has made his mind up to join Atletico.
The departure of Gallagher to Diego Simeone's side could coincide with the arrival of another creative midfielder.
The Blues have an interest in Celtic star Matt O'Riley, but they are bound to face competition for his services.
Brighton & Hove Albion have recently entered the pursuit and they are determined to secure a quick deal.
There could be more outgoings from Chelsea in the next few weeks.
The likes of Trevoh Chalobah, Ben Chilwell, David Datro Fofana and Armando Broja are expected to leave.
