Chelsea are on the verge of beating Manchester United to the signing of Brazil youth international Kenedy, according to reports.
The 19-year-old began his career at Fluminense and made his professional debut for the Brazilian giants in 2014, going on to make 40 appearances.
According to the Daily Star, a £6.3m fee has been agreed between the two clubs, with just personal terms to be decided.
Kenedy, a Brazil Under-20 international, would become Chelsea's second signing of the close-season after Nathan de Souza was purchased from Atletico Paranaense in May.
