Chelsea have agreed a £47m deal to sign Monaco midfielder Lamine Camara, with the transfer subject to the player completing a medical.
Camara is expected to sign a six-year contract with Chelsea once the medical has been successfully completed. The move would see the Monaco midfielder join the Premier League club as a replacement for Enzo Fernandez, according to the original transfer report.
The agreement represents the first confirmed detail of the developing deal, although the transfer has not yet been completed. Camara must still undergo the required medical before he can formally sign his contract and become a Chelsea player.
No further information has been provided at this stage about the precise timing of the medical, the structure of the £47m fee or when the move is expected to be officially announced. Chelsea and Monaco have agreed the headline terms, while the next formal step is for Camara to complete the medical examination.
The 21-year-old’s proposed six-year contract would commit him to Chelsea for a significant period, but that agreement remains pending until the medical process is concluded. Until then, the £47m transfer should be regarded as agreed rather than completed.
This is a breaking news story and further details are expected to be published as they become available. The situation is continuing to develop, with updates likely to follow on the medical, the completion of the paperwork and the official confirmation of Camara’s move from Monaco to Chelsea.
