Chelsea begins discussions with Aston Villa for Omari Kellyman

Chelsea is close to signing Omari Kellyman. The Blues have big expectations for the 18-year-old attacker, and they are eager to sign him immediately rather than waiting for his skill to grow in the future, as this decision has shocked many. Chelsea is continuing its tireless chase of some of the best young players from across the world, this time with an emphasis on talented forwards. Aston Villa's Omari Kellyman has surfaced as a surprise signing target for the club. 

Omari Kellyman, an 18-year-old rising through the junior levels, joined Villa two years ago from Derby County. Last season, he played 58 senior minutes across several competitions, and Villa rated him at £20 million, with just future potential to consider. The Blues want the striker to come in and join them for pre-season. However, his immediate future will be established, as the 18-year-old offensive sensation might be loaned out for a year, potentially to Strasbourg.
