Blues close to pulling off major coup with five potentially world class youngsters.
Chelsea are looking to spend a whopping £167m on five new players this summer to turn them into a world force for years to come.
According to recent speculation, the Blues will bring in these exceptional youngsters to help them build for the future, including moves for sought-after talents also linked with big names like Manchester United, Manchester City and Barcelona.
The five players are as follows:
1) Paul Pogba (Juventus)
Perhaps the best young player in the world, 22-year-old Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba is said to be nearing a stunning £70m to Stamford Bridge this summer, despite being strongly linked with Barcelona and Man City earlier in this transfer window.

2) John Stones (Everton)
Already worth an astonishing £40m, there’s no doubt Everton centre-back John Stones is one of the best young defenders in the game and an ideal replacement for John Terry at the back and perhaps as captain.
3) Raphael Varane (Real Madrid)
For a further £30m, Chelsea also want to sign Real Madrid starlet Raphael Varane to bolster their options at the back, with the French international possibly already an upgrade on Gary Cahill.
4) Kenedy
A done deal at around £7m, Kenedy has already joined Chelsea this summer and looks one of the most exciting Brazilian youngsters in the game right now after catching the eye at Fluminense.
5) Baba Rahman
Brought in for roughly £20m, Baba Rahman is another superb buy by Chelsea to give them a long-term replacement for club legend Ashley Cole at left-back.
