Chelsea Women are close to signing Colombia striker Mayra Ramirez for a club-record fee.
The 24-year-old has impressed at Levante, scoring six goals in seven league games this season after netting 14 times last term.
Chelsea have been keen on signing a striker in this window after Sam Kerr suffered an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury during a warm weather training camp in Morocco earlier this month.
Ramirez is set to become Chelsea's most expensive signing, surpassing the £250,000 fee paid for Pernille Harder from Wolfsburg in 2020
She is expected to replace Kerr, who has been a talismanic figure for the Blues, scoring 58 times in 73 WSL games across four and a half seasons and twice winning the top flight's Golden Boot during that time.
