AlamyChelsea have agreed a seven-year deal to sign Jamie Gittens from Dortmund[/caption]And despite Bayern Munich also being interested, a deal has now been agreed for the 20-year-old to move to Stamford Bridge.
Gittens will undergo his medical tonight on the US, before finalising a seven-year-deal until 2032, worth £55.5million.
Earlier this month, Dortmund turned down an offer worth £42m, and the two clubs were unable to agree a deal before the first window closed on 10 June.
The eventual dea comes amid Chelsea’s search to strengthen wide areas after rejecting their obligation to sign Jadon Sancho from Manchester United permanently.
The England U21 international contributed 12 goals and five assists in 48 games in all competitions for Dortmund last season.
