Chelsea to sign Norwich’s Alex Matos on a free transfer after the 18-year-old forward informed the Championship club of his intentions to leave.
Premier League giants Chelsea have reportedly reached an agreement in principle with Norwich City for the signing of promising youngster Alex Matos on a free transfer this summer.
As per reliable sources, the 18-year-old forward’s contract with the Championship side is set to expire at the end of the current campaign, and he has informed his current employers of his desire to leave upon its conclusion.
Matos, a native of England, has been a product of the Norwich City academy, progressing through the ranks to establish himself as a regular for the club’s Under-18s team. The young forward made his debut for the academy side last season and has been a key player for them ever since.
This potential acquisition is the latest in a series of changes being made to the Chelsea setup behind the scenes. It remains to be seen how Matos will fit into the club’s plans, but his potential and youthfulness make him an exciting prospect for the Blues.
