Chelsea are closing in on a £15million deal for Everton's Ross Barkley, looking likely to finally secure their target after a deal fell through last summer.
The champions' bid for the 24-year-old attacking midfield came to nothing back in August after Barkley decided to continue his recovery from hamstring surgery on Merseyside.
But Chelsea maintained their interest in the England international and a deal appears imminent, even though Barkley hasn't played a single minute of football this season.
When he does regain full fitness, we will see how much game time Barkley will get at Chelsea, a club hardly short on creative talent.
