Chelsea raid Celtic for Somali superkid Islam Feruz

Chelsea are raiding Celtic for Somali superkid Islam Feruz.

The Scotsman says the 15-year-old is set to move to Stamford Bridge instead of signing a new deal with Celtic, but will not be able to pen a professional contract until he is 17.

Feruz will move to Chelsea on a contract worth £2,500 a week with the Blues coughing up £300,000 to Celtic in compensation.

A Blues spokesperson said: "Until an official press release is made by Chelsea FC, we cannot make any comments regarding signing speculations."
