Chelsea set to sign Kurt Zouma?

Chelsea are reportedly set to sign Saint-Etienne defender Kurt Zouma during the current transfer window, as per the Guardian.

The Blues have been tracking the progress of the talented French Under-21 international since the summer.

The report claims that the highly-rated centre-half will make the move to the West London club on a five-year contract for a fee of around £12.3m in the transfer window but is likely to rejoin Saint Etienne on loan for the remainder of the season.

Kurt Zouma has made over 50 appearances for the French Ligue 1 outfit.
