Chelsea have agreed personal terms with Borussia Dortmund winger Jamie Gittens, according to reports in France.

The 20-year-old, who left Manchester City to join Dortmund nearly five years ago, has been one of the standout performers for the Bundesliga club this season.

In 48 appearances for Dortmund this term, Gittens has 12 goals and five assists, while he is now widely expected to return to England in the summer transfer window.

Chelsea, meanwhile, are looking to strengthen ahead of their Club World Cup campaign, which begins this month, and completed a £30m deal to sign Liam Delap from Ipswich Town this week.

According to RMC Sport, Chelsea now have an agreement in principle with Gittens with a seven-year contract being accepted by the winger.
