Pedro is set to join a new-look Chelsea forward line
**Chelsea have agreed a fee in excess of £50m to sign forward Joao Pedro from Brighton.**
The 23-year-old is expected to sign a seven-year contract and could be available to play in the Fifa Club World Cup.
Joao Pedro is flying in from Brazil to conduct a medical in the United States and could make his debut in Friday's quarter-final tie against Palmeiras (BST 02:00) in Philadelphia.
The move follows an agreement with Borussia Dortmund to sign their English winger Jamie Gittens for £55m on Saturday, just hours before Chelsea beat Benfica to reach the last eight of the Club World Cup.
