LONDON, Aug. 24 (Xinhua) -- Chelsea manager Roberto Di Matteo Friday confirmed the European champions are close to signing Nigeria forward Victor Moses from Wigan.

Moses, 21, is believed to have travelled to London for a medical and to discuss personal terms on Friday and Di Matteo expects the former Crystal Palace star will be confirmed as a Chelsea player shortly.

"The clubs have agreed terms now. The player will have a medical. (Wigan manager) Roberto Martinez has done a wonderful job with this player since signing him. He's really developed him." Di Matteo said on Friday.

"He had a very good season last year and hopefully we can progress his development. He can play on either wing and will give the team width. He has good dribbling ability, has pace and is powerful."
