Chelsea are snapping up Derby County’s left-back Dylan Williams in a dream move for the young Ram.
The Stamford Bridge club are finalising a fee with the crisis club’s administrators that will see Williams move for an initial sum plus extras.
Williams, 18, played for the Derby first team eight times this season but has been unable to sign a professional contract during their time in admin.
Derby faced losing Williams at the end of the season which means they would have faced a long wait for a tribunal to settle the compensation.
Rooney has also spoken to Williams to discuss the move and all parties have decide it is best he leaves now.
