Chelsea are pushing to sign PSG prospect Kays Ruiz-Atil this week.
With Chelsea technical adviser Claude Makelele driving the deal, the teenage midfielder is expected to move to London before the end of the month.
Makelele met with representatives of Ruiz-Atil earlier this week, knowing he is in a contract dispute with PSG. The Parisians are pushing the teen about extending terms, but the youngster has so far failed to accept terms. His current deal runs to 2021.
A source close to Chelsea's negotiations told Goal that "this is a track to be taken seriously".
Ruiz-Atil is no stranger in moving between major clubs as a youth player, having originally come through at La Masia with Barcelona before quitting for Paris.
