Chelsea to sign Pedro

Chelsea are expected to announce the signing of Barcelona winger Pedro in the coming days.

The Spain international had been tipped to exit Camp Nou, following the arrival of Arda Turan from Atletico Madrid.

The likes of Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool have shown interest in signing up the talented winger in recent days, but Spanish daily Sport cites that it is the Blues who have won the race for Pedro's services.

It is added that former Barca teammate Cesc Fabregas has played a major role in convincing Pedro to make his way to Stamford Bridge this summer.

Pedro currently has a buy-out clause of £22m.
