Despite all of the uncertainty surrounding the club in terms of the owner, the manager and star players like Thibaut Courtois and Willian, Chelsea’s recruitment team are carrying on as usual and are close to agreeing a deal for Seri.
The Ivorian international almost signed for Barcelona last summer before a deal collapsed, so whilst Chelsea are confident of getting their man, they’ll know that nothing is done until the 26-year-old puts pen to paper on a contract.
Seri has played 121 games for Nice since arriving in 2015, scoring 14 goals in total.
There have been a plenty of clubs linked with moves for the midfielder, so it will be an impressive coup by Chelsea if they can get him to Stamford Bridge, especially as the club won’t be playing Champions League football next season.
