Jamie Gittens reportedly has an agreement in principle with Chelsea, who are now looking to negotiate a transfer with Borussia Dortmund.
Gittens has also been linked with Chelsea by CaughtOffside columnist Christian Falk in yesterday’s column for CF Bayern Insider.
This also follows Bild reporting that Gittens informed Dortmund of his desire to leave, with the Bundesliga giants setting an asking price of around £50m for the England Under-21 international.
See below as RMC Sport journalist Fabrice Hawkins has posted on X about Chelsea agreeing terms on a seven-year contract for Gittens…

Gittens finished 2024/25 with a total of 12 goals and three assists in all competitions, and looks like he has the potential to improve even further.

Still only 20 years of age, Gittens plays with a real swagger and flair and looks like a perfect fit for this long-term Chelsea project built around the best young players in the world.
One imagines plenty of other clubs will have been keen on Gittens, and CFC will do well if they end up winning the race for his signature, as now looks increasingly likely.
