Bournemouth and Chelsea have agreed a £25million deal for Djordje Petrovic to move to the Vitality Stadium, football.london understands.
The 25-year-old goalkeeper recently informed the Blues he wanted to leave after no guarantee could be made of regular first-team football next season. Petrovic shone on loan at Strasbourg in Ligue 1 last term and is desperate for a consistent run somewhere.
After days of talks between Chelsea and Bournemouth, an agreement has now been reached. The Blues are set to receive £25million for the Serbian goalkeeper, who is set to sign a five-year contract down on the south coast, less than 24 hours after agreeing a deal with Arsenal for the £52million sale of Noni Madueke.

Once both deals are finalised and official, they will become the club's fourth and fifth sales of the summer transfer window. Bashir Humphreys has joined Burnley on a permanent basis, while goalkeepers Kepa Arrizabalaga and Marcus Bettinelli have also departed this summer.
Chelsea will be looking at close to £100million for all of their departures so far in the window once Madueke and Petrovic are completed. And there are still numerous other players who look set for a departure before the window includes. The likes of Raheem Sterling, Ben Chilwell, Axel Disasi, Armando Broja, Joao Felix and Christopher Nkunku are all set to leave the club at some point.
