Aleksandr Golovin’s move to Chelsea is reportedly set to be wrapped up in the coming days after the CSKA midfielder dropped a hint/clanger on social media.

The Blues have been heavily linked with the Russia World Cup midfielder. Sky Italy claim a deal is close between Chelsea and the Russian outfit.

The Sun claim Chelsea have agreed a fee with CSKA for Golovin, believed to be around €30m, with the midfielder rejecting an offer from Monaco to head to Stamford Bridge.

And now Golovin’s CSKA Moscow team-mate Sergey Chepchugov has dropped the biggest hint yet that the midfielder is moving to the Blues after a post on his Instagram account.

Chepchugov’s post congratulated the midfielder on sealing a move to a “big club” and wished him well at Chelsea.

Golovin’s official Instagram account @alex_golovin17 liked the post.
