Chelsea have reached an agreement in principle to activate the £5m release clause of Barcelona teenager Marc Guiu.
The Blues are ready to schedule a medical in London for the 18-year-old striker.
Barcelona are believed to have attempted to remove the modest release clause from Guiu's contract by offering an extension.
However, after a week of talks with his agency, Chelsea are closing in on the signing of the Spain Under-19 international to bolster their attacking options.
The graduate from Barcelona's famous La Masia academy scored just 23 seconds into his debut against Athletic Bilbao in 2023.
