Chelsea have made their final transfer decision on Real Madrid winger Rodrygo.
The Blues are focused on bolstering their attack over the coming weeks and have been linked with several big names.
Talks are already ongoing with RB Leipzig star Xavi Simons, and a formal bid could be made for his services very soon.
Rodrygo is another name that has been linked with the Blues, but the club have no plans of pursuing a deal for the Brazilian.
The 24-year-old is considering his future at Madrid after falling out-of-favour under manager Xabi Alonso at the Club World Cup.
He is open to moving to the Premier League this summer but no clubs have come forward with a concrete proposal for him.
Chelsea have been credited with an interest, but the Blues are unlikely to compete due to the attacker's hefty wage demands.
Rodrygo may want close to £300,000 per week at his next club while Chelsea are reluctant to exceed £200,000 weekly.
