Yehvan Diouf: Chelsea on brink of first signing of Conte era

Chelsea are chasing Troyes goalkeeper Yehvan Diouf.

L'Equipe says the 16 year-old could become the first signing of the Antonio Conte era at Chelsea.

Chelsea director Marina Granovskaia has been in talks with Troyes for some weeks over a fee for Diouf.

Juventus and Bayern Munich are also interested, but Granovskaia is now wrapping up terms on Chelsea's behalf.

The finishing touches are now being put together, which will see Chelsea pay a fee of €320,000 rising to €800,000 based on appearances and success.
