Chelsea have agreed terms with Augsburg's Baba Rahman - agent

Chelsea have agreed personal terms with Baba Rahman, the Augsburg defender's agent has confirmed.

Chelsea are seeking a replacement left-back after allowing Filipe Luis to return to Atletico Madrid and are closing in on a deal for Ghana international Rahman.

The player's representative, Sascha Empacher, has confirmed that the 21-year-old has agreed terms and it is now down to the two clubs to negotiate a transfer fee.

"It is only the clubs that have to find an agreement," Empacher told Sport Bild. "We on our side are agreed."

Kicker previously reported that Augsburg were seeking €25 million for Rahman.

Augsburg -- who are seeking a quick resolution on Rahman's future -- have already brought in a new left-back, with Philipp Max sealing a move from Karlsruher SC on Tuesday.
