Agent confirms Chelsea have AGREED terms to sign midfielder in January

Chelsea look set to strengthen their central midfield in January, with a deal reportedly close, with just a fee to be agreed with Inter Milan for Fredy Guarin.

The Daily Mirror have reported: '' Guarin's agent Marcelo Ferreyra confirmed talks had taken place and insists it is now up to the two clubs to agree a fee.

He told Colombian network Caracol Radio: "We have already been to London with Inter and met with Chelsea directors to make their interest formal.

"If both clubs reach an agreement, a transfer is an option, but Fredy is happy at Inter as well if they don't agree terms.

"Fredy feels important under Walter Mazzarri. The upcoming World Cup also plays a role. We will also meet with the Inter owner to see what the project looks like here."
