Jose Castro is confident that the 23-year-old will pen a four-year deal at the club, with the two teams still to decide on a transfer fee.

Sevilla Confident

“It is very close and we can put in the hours,” Castro said.

“This just started and we have to make that time to continue growing our squad.”

Failed Time at Chelsea

Kakuta joined Chelsea back in 2007, but in his eight years there, he has failed to break into the first-team and has spent been sent out on loan to six different clubs.

After being promoted to the Chelsea first-team in 2009, Kakuta has made just six Premier League appearances, and since has been sent out on loan to; Fulham, Bolton Wanderers, Dijon, Vitesse, Lazio and most recently Rayo Vallecano.

However, it looks like the winger is finally set to find a permanent move with Europa League winners Sevilla.
