• Olise close to agreeing to Chelsea move
• Chelsea keen on £45m transfer
• Olise could follow Caicedo and Lavia

WHAT HAPPENED? Chelsea hope to secure a £45 million ($57m) deal for the Crystal Palace attacker and now almost have things sorted on the player side, according to the Evening Standard. Manchester City have also been linked with the Frenchman this summer.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: Signing Olise from Palace could take Chelsea's summer spending above the £400 million ($507m) mark. Mauricio Pochettino's side have just snatched Brighton midfielder Moises Caicedo from under the noses of Liverpool after agreeing a £115m ($146m) deal.

AND WHAT'S MORE: The Blues are also keen on signing Southampton youngster Romeo Lavia, although on Monday Liverpool had a £60m ($76m) offer accepted by the Championship club.
