Chelsea are closing in on the signing of Corinthians’ teenage left-back prospect Denner for a fee close to €12.5 million.
According to Globo, Chelea and Corinthians are in advanced talks for teenage left-back prospect Denner. The two clubs could agree on a deal worth €12.5 million before the transfer deadline, although his age will prevent an imminent departure, which will only materialise when he turns 18.
Chelsea have continued their quest to bring some of the best young talents in the market. They have adopted this aggressive policy of identifying some of the best young profiles from around the world under the new ownership. They have continued to pursue players with a big promise for the future.
Recently, they were linked with Ligue 2 talent Eli Junior Kroupi, and he’s one of the many names on their list as the club continues to hold talks for different talents. South America, and in particular, Brazil, has been a big market for Chelsea over the last two years, as they are on the verge of signing another young name from there.
There have been numerous names coming from Brazil, and now, teenage left-back prospect Denner has come to their attention. Chelsea have held advanced talks with Corinthians for the player, with the two clubs now on the verge of agreeing a deal worth €12.5 million for the 16-year-old defensive prodigy.
Chelsea to sign Denner from Corinthians
The player is currently on a meagre salary, far away from professional standards, and it might be in his best interest to make a big move to a club like Chelsea. The €12.5 million mentioned in the report will be broken into €8 million fixed for Corinthians and the rest in add-ons that may be associated with when he moves to London.
Chelsea are open to paying big money for unproven talents, as they have shown in the past, and that seems like the case with this deal for Denner. While it may take two more years for the 16-year-old defensive prodigy to leave Brazil, he could now focus on his development.
Corinthians are likely to agree on a deal with Chelsea as they do not want to lose a talent like Denner to another Brazilian side, with the teenager allowed to move within the country. Hence, the Blues might have acquired another top talent coming out of the South American nation and added to their impressive list of profiles from Brazil.
