Chelsea winger Kenedy is ready to sign for Flamengo.

Bruno Spindel, executive director of Flamengo, last week confirmed their interest in Kenedy.

He told Extra: "He's a very interesting athlete. He had a great season, we would really like to have him.

"Because of the financial situation and everything that happened to him, it is a very difficult negotiation."

The 25-year-old was on loan with Granada last season, making 44 appearances, and scoring eight goals.

According to Extra, the player is currently residing in Brazil, rather than reporting back for Thomas Tuchel's pre-season training camp.
