Rennes goalkeeper Edouard Mendy is inching closer to his dream move to Chelsea.
According to the French journalist Mohamed Bouhafsi, the Ligue 1 star is 'ready and waiting' to fly to London after agreeing a five-year deal with the Blues.
Despite the clubs not yet reaching a deal, negotiations remain ongoing.
Rennes want roughly £18 million to make the transfer happen.
If Mendy does sign, he could become the club's no.1, as manager Frank Lampard wants significant competition for Kepa Arrizabalaga.
