Renato Veiga will become Chelsea ’s 11th first-team departure of the summer after he agreed a move to Villarreal. He leaves the Blues for a fee of around €30million, and Standard Sport understands Chelsea have included a sell-on clause in the deal. It is a club-record signing for the Spanish outfit.

Renato Veiga is set to leave Stamford Bridge with Chelsea on way to earn £250m from selling players this summer.

Juventus have still not closed the door on a move for Renato Veiga to Turin this summer but need to sell Lloyd Kelly to generate funds.

Renato Veiga has always felt at home with a ball at his feet. In his unveiling interview with Chelsea, he cited his father as his biggest inspiration. “I just wanted to be like him,” he said.

Chelsea defender Renato Veiga has agreed personal terms with Spanish club Villarreal. The Portugal international, 22, is ready to join the Spanish club - who have qualified for the Champions League this season - but difficult negotiations continue over the fee.

A year after arriving at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea have made significant profit on their Veiga investment, selling him for more then double what they signed him for. With less than two weeks to go before the transfer window closes, the Blues are still working on a number of other departures to facilitate further signings.

The 22-year-old has taken a big step towards moving to Spain by agreeing a contract, as talks over a fee continue with Chelsea.

Renato Veiga could be set to return to Juventus this summer following his loan spell with the Italian club during the second half of last season
