Fluminense ace Kenedy undergoes Chelsea medical

Brazilian youngster Kenedy is set to be the next South American joining Chelsea after undergoing a medical with the Premier League Champions.

The 19-year old, who was sold by Fluminense to an investment company a few weeks ago, underwent a medical with the Blues on Tuesday night and is now expected to complete a £6.3million to west London.

Kenedy follows compatriot Nathan to Stamford Bridge after he joined the Blues from Atletico Paranaense earlier in the summer.

The Brazilian U20 international had been monitored by Manchester United, Barcelona and Juventus, but Chelsea are set to snag the youngster having agreed on the aforementioned fee.
