Chelsea agree deal for Copa America star

 

Chelsea have reportedly agreed a shock deal to sign Internacional midfielder Charles Aránguiz.

 

Aránguiz, 26, played an instrumental part in Chile’s first ever Copa America title earlier this month and had also been a target for London rivals Arsenal and Ligue 1 outfit Marseille.

 

However, both have missed out on the midfielder’s signature, after reports from France emerged claiming Marseille were told a deal had already been struck with the Premier League champions.
