According to the most recent information provided by Fabrizio Romano, who shared the transfer's specifics on his own Twitter profile.
The always trustworthy super-journalist said:
Here we go, Caesar Casadei to Chelsea. Documents are ready and waiting to be signed; Inter will receive €15 million plus €5 million in add-ons. There is no buyback provision.
Six-year contract; 48-hour medical. After Carney and Hutchinson, Boehly sought Casadei as part of his top talent strategy.
tremendous improvement
The Casadei agreement marks a significant turning point in the discussions as well as in Chelsea's overall situation.
The 19-year-old Italian is now the newest future star to join the likes of Carney Chukwuemeka and Omari Hutchinson who, with to Boehly's youth-filled "top talents" plan, will be looking to become fully fledged first-team players over the next 2-3 seasons.
Casadei has built a big reputation in Italian Primavera football and has been dubbed a “wonderkid” by Nizaar Kinsella during his time with Inter.
In 29 Primavera 1 appearances last season, Casadei demonstrated his ability as a progressive midfielder with 17 goal contributions in the form of 13 goals and four assists, in just 29 games.
The £12.6m Italian is in a similar mould to fellow countryman Jorginho, with his ability to add sustainability to the midfield and directly chip in with goals.
The update from Romano will surely come as a boost for Chelsea fans who are witnessing their club cause havoc in the market this summer..
