Chelsea have agreed their next deal of the window – for a huge fee.

The Blues have earned a reputation under chairman Todd Boehly for free-spending during transfer season, though this summer might have to be a little different. Chelsea have PSR to consider, as they look to break back into the elite.

Still, having to balance the books hasn’t hindered the west Londoners from striking an “exorbitant” transfer for new manager, Enzo Maresca.

Chelsea have agreed a deal with Boca Juniors to sign defender Aaron Anselmino, according to OleThe Blues will pay a reported £14.2 million for the 19-year-old, who has impressed in Argentina, described as “exorbitant” by TyC Sports.

Boca Juniors reportedly want to keep Anselmino on loan for another year as part of the deal and Chelsea has reluctantly accepted their proposal. The offer from the Premier League side was said to be “impossible to reject” for the Buenos Aires club.

Chelsea have been pursuing a move for the teenager for several weeks, but Boca Juniors were reportedly intent on keeping one of their prized assets for one more season. The Blues’ financial might looks to have made the difference.
