With less than two weeks before the English premier league transfer window closes, player movement continues across Europe.
Reports indicate that English league champions Chelsea have agreed a deal with European champions Barcelona to sign winger Pedro for a fee of 32 million dollars.
Reports further indicate that the 28-year-old Spain international is likely to seal the deal before the end of the week.
Pedro, previously a Manchester United target, has scored 99 goals in 326 appearances since his debut for Barcelona in 2008.
Manchester United fans have reacted with dismay at the news transfer target Pedro is on the verge of a move to Chelsea.
Here are some of the reactions from Twitter:

Pedro is also exactly what Man Utd are crying out for…the one that got away. How, is the question that needs answering…

I thought Ed Woodward went to Barcelona to wrap up the Pedro deal?! He obviously went to Barcelona just for a holiday. #mufc
