"Chelsea have been trying to get the player buy in and whilst that isn't fully there at this point, SPTC Sources have heard that Chelsea have received encouragement' from Lopez' camp hence why they've been trying to verbally agree a fee with his club. Today, it ideally needs Lopez to go to Barcelona and say he wants to join Chelsea, and then Barca will be willing to agree a fee with Chelsea although there is no guarantee that the two parties will agree a fee."
"We are unsure at this point whether Lopez would do this because up until now, it's always been the belief that he ideally wants to stay at his club so I can't see him forcing' a move unfortunately. But let's see what today brings because he's clearly a bit temped by Chelsea, and The Blues will continue talks this morning with all parties on this one."
Chelsea are pursuing Barcelona attacking midfielder Fermin Lopez, a 22-year-old Spain international who can play centrally or on the wing. Chelsea prefer young talents like Lopez and are attempting a late Deadline Day move after receiving encouragement from Lopez's camp. Negotiations involve verbal fee talks with Barcelona, but Barca likely require Lopez to state a desire to join Chelsea before agreeing a fee. Lopez has been believed to want to remain at Barcelona, so a forced move seems unlikely. The situation is fluid and could quickly progress or collapse as talks continue between all parties.
