Chelsea target Richarlison is set to sign for Premier League side Watford in the coming days.
According to Voetbal international, Richarlison is on the verge of completing a move to Watford, despite interest from a number of big clubs.
The report claims that the Brazilian attacker has rejected a switch to Dutch giants Ajax in favour of a move to England with Watford.
It is also said that Chelsea and Manchester United were both interested in the youngster, but Watford appear to have beaten off the competition to land his signature.
The 20-year-old scored nine goals in his debut senior season in Brazil, attracting interest from a host of clubs across Europe.
Chelsea are renowned for their scouting of youth talent, signing talented youngsters and sending them out on loan, but Richarlison appears to be set for a move to Watford over Antonio Conte’s side.
Italian clubs Inter and Sampdoria are also said to have been keen.
