Bournemouth have agreed a season-long loan deal for Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga, subject to a medical.
The 29-year-old is travelling to the south coast for his medical after extending his contract at Stamford Bridge until 2026.
The extension was put in place so Chelsea could avoid losing him on a free transfer at the end of the loan deal, with his previous contract expiring next June.
The move is expected to end Bournemouth's interest in Arsenal keeper Aaron Ramsdale and could see Mark Travers leave the club before Friday's transfer deadline.
