Chelsea appear to have settled on their next two summer transfers, having already reportedly reached an agreement with Sporting to acquire the services of Geovany Quenda.

There was a lot of satisfaction among Chelsea staff on Friday after news broke of their agreement with Sporting CP to sign Geovany Quenda. Not only have the club secured a talented player who they deem to be among the top three under-23 wingers in the world — summer arrival Estevao Willian from Palmerias is another (initial €34million/£29m/$37m fee agreed in advance last June) and Barcelona’s Lamine Yamal is the third — but they feel delighted all the preparation was done without any leaks about their interest coming to light.
