Although just last Friday he rejected a £20 million offer from London for the safety Shaun Wright-Phillips, on Sunday the BBC reports that the clubs have agreed on a £21 million transfer fee.
It is said that such a sudden change in the situation is related to the request of the 23-year-old winger to allow him to move to the London club.
In an official statement released on the London Chelsea website, it is stated that an agreement has been reached on the transfer amount and the move depends only on negotiations with the player himself and a medical examination, which the Englishman should undergo in the coming days.
The Englishman has already represented his country's national team four times. He scored his only goal in his debut match against Ukraine, in which he came on as a substitute.
Shaun Wright-Phillips has played 181 matches for Man City, scoring 31 goals.
At the beginning of the summer, Chelsea chased England's midfielder Steven Gerrard, but he signed a new contract with Liverpool. The London club also actively tried to acquire Lyon midfielder Michael Essien.
