Chelsea midfielder Musonda in Glasgow for Celtic deal

Chelsea midfielder Charly Musonda is in Glasgow to finalise a loan move to Celtic.

The Sun says the 18-month deal is set to be completed today after the 21-year-old completes his medical.

The Hoops are expected to pay a significant proportion of his Chelsea wage, as well as an initial loan fee.

Musonda is in pursuit of first team football after struggling for game time under the management of Antonio Conte.

He featured during Chelsea's recent victory against Brighton, but was then dropped for the Carabao Cup clash with Arsenal.

But the 21-year-old has confirmed that his long-term commitment remains with the Premier League side.
