According to reports from the Sky Sports Transfer Centre this morning (see 07:23 and 08:36), Barcelona star Pedro could complete his shock move to Chelsea by the end of the day.
Manchester United seemed set to sign the 27 year-old at the start of the week, with Ed Woodward jetting off to Spain on Monday to try and conclude a deal, but he’s now on the verge of joining the Premier League champions instead.

Reasons as to why remain open to speculation. Some sources claim Louis van Gaal ‘dropped his interest‘ in the 2010 World Cup winner, whilst others report that the United gaffer’s treatment of former team-mate and fellow Spain international Victor Valdes has put Pedro off an Old Trafford switch.
Either way, the 5 foot 6 attacker is now set to join Chelsea after a bid of €28million plus €2million in add-ons was accepted yesterday and according to Sky Sports, the transfer could be concluded today.
They claim Pedro is in London today to undergo a medical at Cobham and with the agreement of personal terms likely a formality, the three-time Champions League winner could be an official Blue by the end of the day.
