Nathan Undergoes Medical at Chelsea

Brazilian wonderkid Nathan Allan de Souza is undergoing a medical at Stamford Bridge after the Premier League leaders reportedly agreed a deal worth £4.5m to beat off interest from Manchester City, Arsenal and Liverpool.

The 19-year-old youth international broke through the ranks with Atletico Paranaense but has become embroiled in a legal battle with the Brazilian Serie A side and as a result is out of contract at the end of the month.

Nathan burst on the scene in the FIFA U-17 World Cup in 2013 when he scored five goals to help Brazil reach the quarter-finals.

He has since progressed to the U-20 side and has notched up five appearances.
