Chelsea's Ramires to join Jiangsu Suning in £25m move

Chelsea's Ramires is close to a £25m move to Chinese side Jiangsu Suning.

The 28-year-old Brazil midfielder, signed from Benfica for about £17m in 2010, agreed a new four-year deal in October but has only started seven Premier League games this season.

Jiangsu finished ninth in China's top tier in 2015 and are managed by former Blues defender Dan Petrescu.

Ramires has helped the Blues win the Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup, Champions League and Europa League.
