Imminent Chelsea signing Andrey Santos admits he's a fan of the Premier League's Brazilian players.

The Vasco da Gama midfielder, 18, is in London to undergo a medical and sign with Chelsea for a fee of €12.5m.

Santos said, "I really like Casemiro, Bruno Guimarães and Thiago Alcântara. These guys are phenomenal, I mirror them a lot.

"It is clear that football in Europe is much more advanced than here in Brazil and every boy has the dream of playing in Europe.

"But I am calm about that, because I know that everything will be fine."
