Robben set for Chelsea move

CHELSEA have reportedly agreed a deal with Dutch side PSV Eindhoven to sign rising star Arjen Robben in the summer.

Reports in the Dutch media have linked the 20-year-old winger with a summer move to Roman Abramovic’s side where he is set to sign a five-year contract at Stamford Bridge at a cost to the Barclaycard Premiership club of 20m.

Manchester United have been chasing Robben, who had a contract with PSV until 2007, for the past few months but it now appears that Chelsea have now beaten them to the player.

Robben, a Dutch international, joined PSV from Groningen in 2002 and has been a virtual ever-present for the Eindhoven side since.
