Marcos Alonso heading to West London for Chelsea medical

It's the penultimate day of the transfer window, and things are kicking into high gear.  The main topic as far as Chelsea are concerned is Fiorentina defender Marcos Alonso.  We've been seeing multiple reports regarding the signing of the left back and occasional center back, and while some of them have been conflicting, signs seem to be pointing towards it becoming a reality sooner rather than later.

In fact, if the latest indication from Sky Sports is correct, a deal has apparently been agreed between the clubs, and the player is already on his way to West London.  A medical could be happening as soon as tonight!

Hopefully, the deal (and another signing, perhaps?) will be done and dusted well in time before the window shuts. Sit tight!
