Pedro agrees to join Chelsea

Pedro has agreed to join Chelsea after telephone conversations with Jose Mourinho and Cesc Fabregas convinced the Barcelona forward. Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho is keen on tempting Barcelona forward Pedro away from the Nou Camp this summer, according to Spanish newspaper Sport. The 27-year-old, who signed a new five-year deal in June, is reportedly available for £22million as Barcelona agreed to reduce his release clause from a staggering £108m when he put pen to paper. Pedro could end his 11-year association with Barcelona after struggling to hold down a regular starting spot at the club due to the form of Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar.
