After three failed bids, Chelsea's fourth attempt to capture John Stones could see the defender moving to Stamford Bridge.
The 21-year-old has handed in a transfer request, confirming Everton fans worst fears.
Chelsea were knocked back with their starting bid of £20 million.
But Jose Mourinho didn't give up and raised the stakes to £26 million and then to £30 million.
Now it seems a final offer of £40 million means Mourinho will get his man.
