The Argentina striker was in the crowd to watch us beat Leicester on Saturday and his agent has confirmed that Chelsea have agreed a fee with Inter, agreed terms with Crespo and now all that needs to be done is a medical.

The fee is believed to eventually reach £20 million, depending on Chelsea's success.

Fernando Hidalgo, who also represents Seba Veron, revealed "Crespo will sign his contract with Chelsea tomorrow (Tuesday) after he passes the medical tests. He will probably sign after the match. The agreement between clubs has been reached."

And this was confirmed by Inter general director Massimo Moretti "The agreement with Chelsea is complete."

Crespo is best friends with Seba Veron, both men having played for Parma, Lazio and the Argentina national team- and now, of course, the mighty Chelsea!
