Chelsea are moving for Reading whizkid Oliver Pendlebury.
The Sun says the midfielder, 15, is captain of the England U16s and rated highly by the Royals.
But the Championship club could not stand in the way of a big offer.
Pendlebury is one of a couple of domestic targets Blues want to increase their quota of English players.
Chelsea have one of the most successful youth teams in the country and consistently challenge for honours.
