Chelsea are reportedly close to completing a deal for Rayo Vallecano left-back Pep Chavarria. According to MARCA, the Chelsea Pep Chavarria transfer is nearing completion, with the fee expected to be around €25 million.

The report indicates that negotiations have moved forward and that an agreement is close. Although the trimmed details do not outline the full structure of the move, the proposed price places Chavarria among Chelsea's notable defensive targets.

If the transfer is finalised, Chelsea would bring in a left-back from Rayo Vallecano as they continue to reshape their squad at Stamford Bridge. The move would also mark a significant step for Chavarria if he makes the switch from La Liga to the Premier League.

MARCA's report also notes that Xabi Alonso is at Stamford Bridge with the Blues. With talks said to be at an advanced stage, the focus is now on whether Chelsea can officially confirm the Pep Chavarria deal.
