Chelsea to complete Emerson deal within 48 hours

Chelsea should complete their move for Roma's Emerson Palmieri in the next 48 hours after agreeing a four-and-a-half-year contract, Goal understands.

The Blues hope that the 23-year-old will be part of a double deal with Roma, as Goal reported on Monday that Chelsea are also aiming to secure striker Edin Dzeko this week . The deal could be worth a joint fee of around £50 million, which is inclusive of performance-related add-ons.
