Chelsea are set to sign Croatian starlet Andrej Kramaric, before loaning him to Premier League relegation candidates Leicester City, reports in Italy suggest.
Jose Mourinho is set to tie up a deal to take him to West London later this week, having agreed a deal with his current club, HNK Rejeka.
And reports suggest that Chelsea will then loan Kramaric, aged 23, straight to Leicester City on a short-term deal until the end of the season.
The Foxes currently sit bottom of the top flight, and had previously been keen on landing the Croat on a permanent basis.
