Super Eagles prospect, Tosin Adarabioyo is poised to undergo a Chelsea medical next week after deciding to join Chelsea on a free transfer, according to reports.

The Fulham defender, Adarabioyo remains eligible to represent Nigeria through descent despite turning own an approach by the Nigeria Football Federation to represent the Eagles in 2020.

Chelsea who are preparing to welcome Enzo Maresca as their new manager, are set to land the ex-Manchester City defender - who is out of contract this summer.

According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, negotiations are at the "final stages" after weeks of talks as Adarabioyo prepares to become Maresca's first signing following his move from Leicester.

Chelsea are said to be the "clear favourites" to sign Adarabioyo but are remaining "cautious" until the deal is completed.

Fulham have been resigned to losing Adarabioyo since he snubbed their offer of a bumper new deal.

Newcastle were leading the race for the former Manchester City defender and have been working on a deal for several weeks but they have not been able to see off a late move from Chelsea, who have offered Adarabioyo a bigger financial package than Eddie Howe’s team.

Adarabioyo, a Manchester City academy product, moved to Fulham from the Etihad in 2020 and has played 129 games at Craven Cottage and established himself as one of the club's most important players.

Adarabioyo’s impending arrival could also hasten the departure of Trevoh Chalobah.

The versatile Chelsea defender has emerged as a target for Manchester United and could fetch the Blues a fee around £25m.

Meanwhile, Fulham have identified former Leicester defender Caglar Soyuncu as a possible replacement.

Soyuncu, 26, spent this season on loan at Fenerbahce after finding opportunities limited at parent club Atletico Madrid.
