The Premier League giants will be paying around £11.8million to secure Veiga’s signature.
The Blues are not stopping there in terms of their recruitment of younger players.
They are pushing for deals to sign Boca Juniors center-back Aaron Anselmino and Atlanta United left-back Caleb Wiley.
Veiga is one who the scouting department are very impressed by, as he can play as a center-back, full-back, and a holding midfielder.
