Chelsea transfer rumours – Blues to splash the cash on exciting young trio.
Chelsea are reportedly making progress on deals to sign three players in moves worth a combined £59m, with the Blues looking at some of the most exciting youngsters in Europe.
The Premier League champions arguably have little strengthening to do after such a comprehensive Premier League title win last season, but are now set for some late summer spending.
The players in question are as follows:
1) Alex Telles (Galatasaray)
Chelsea are being strongly linked with a move for £7m-rated Galatasaray left-back Alex Telles. The 22-year-old Brazilian looks an outstanding prospect and is also being monitored by Paris Saint-Germain and Inter Milan.

2) John Stones (Everton)
Valued at a staggering £34m, Everton defender John Stones is also known to be a top target for Chelsea this summer, with the Blues looking to bring in a long-term replacement for ageing club captain John Terry. Two bids have failed already, but another is expected and a deal looks inevitable.
3) Baba Rahman (Augsburg)
With an £18m fee reportedly agreed, according to Bild, Chelsea look close to wrapping up a deal for Augsburg left-back Baba Rahman, a superb young left-back from Ghana who has shone in the Bundesliga.
