Carvalho is a Brazil under-17 international and is said to also be attracting interest from the likes of Real Madrid, Borussia Dortmund and Manchester City.
However, him posing for a picture with Eden Hazard in what appear to be Chelsea’s training ground suggests that Maurizio Sarri’s side are closing in on a deal to sign the midfielder this summer.
Chelsea are currently banned from making additions to the first-team for the next two transfer windows, but are still allowed to sign players for their youth sides.
