Almost Done! Defender Going To Make This Transfer Move From Chelsea

Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic is on his way out from the club. The Serbian has flown to Spain to complete a move to Zenit St Petersburg.

The 32-year-old is currently negotiating personal terms with the Russian club. Reports have emerged that the veteran defender will sign a two and a half year contract with an option for a third year.

Ivanovic is one of the longest serving players at the Stamford Bridge. In his nine-year spell with the Blues, he has won a number of coveted trophies including two Premier Leagues and a Champions League.

Since Antonio Conte has started to play with a three-man defence Ivanovic has fallen down the pecking order. The big defender is out of contract at the end of this season and Chelsea are allowing him to leave on a free transfer.

Ivanovic already played his last game for the Chelsea and also was on target against Brentford in the last match.
