Chelsea wrapping up deal for Swedish superkid Ali Suljic

Chelsea are wrapping up a deal for Swedish whizkid Ali Suljic this week.

The 15 year-old defensive prospect is set to sign for Chelsea ahead of rival interest from Manchester City and Arsenal.

"He goes over the next week and I understand he intends to sign with them. Then, the clubs just need to talk," Motala chairman Mikael Larsson fotbolltransfers.com.

"Lots of Premier League clubs have also been in contact with us. But he has been really keen on Chelsea from the beginning and this has continued."

Despite his age, Suljic has made his first team debut for Motala in Sweden's Second Division.
