The agent of Augsburg defender Baba Rahman has revealed that his client has agreed personal terms with Chelsea, claiming that both clubs only have to agree on a transfer fee now.
The Premier League champions are said to have identified the 21-year-old as a replacement for left-back Filipe Luis, who recently re-joined Atletico Madrid after one year at Stamford Bridge.
Last week it was reported that the clubs had struck a £17.5m deal for the Ghana international, but his representative Sascha Empacher says that negotiations are ongoing.
He told Bild: "It is only the clubs that have to find an agreement. We on our side are agreed."
The player's contract expires in 2019.
