Chelsea are making a swoop for Corinthians midfielder Gustavo Moscardo.

UOL Esporte says Chelsea are in advanced talks to sign Moscardo.

The 17-year-old is a defensive midfielder and a formal bid has been tabled, with Moscardo keen to see the move happen.

Corinthians are demanding around €25m to sell.

Chelsea want to bring in Moscardo for the future. He has managed to play ten competitive matches at senior level.
