Chelsea accept £10m deal for Ampadu
According to Nizaar Kinsella, Chelsea has agreed to a deal worth a maximum of £10 million with Leeds for Ethan Ampadu. The 22-year-old player was initially included in Mauricio Pochettino’s squad for the pre-season tour in the USA, but he will now remain behind to finalize the transfer. Earlier on Monday, it was exclusively revealed that the Welsh international attracted interest from clubs in the Premier League, Italy, and Spain. However, Leeds’ bid was the only concrete offer, and Ampadu will undergo a medical examination as part of the transfer process. Last week, Ampadu trained under new manager Pochettino, and with just one year remaining on his contract, Chelsea has decided to capitalize on his sale.
