Danny Welbeck has agreed to join Chelsea from Brighton and is set to have a medical at Stamford Bridge, the Press Association understands, with Jordan Henderson also expected to sign after his Brentford contract was terminated.
Welbeck is due to fly to Hong Kong to join his new team-mates on the second leg of their pre-season tour having agreed a two-year deal.
A club statement said: “Jordan Henderson has left Brentford after a mutual agreement was reached to terminate his contract.
“Coming back to the Premier League was really important to me and Brentford gave me that chance.
With more than 400 Premier League appearances, the former England striker’s arrival is the clearest departure yet from the club’s recent strategy of seeking out young, inexperienced players with potential.
