Wigan Athletic have accepted a £9m bid from Chelsea for forward
Victor Moses.
Chelsea have had four previous bids for the former England Under-21 international rejected.
"The club can confirm that after four unsuccessful bids from Chelsea for Victor Moses, a fifth bid has today finally met the valuation and terms set by Wigan Athletic and been accepted," a club statement read.
Chelsea have offered £7m up front, with a further £2m in add-ons.
Wigan have now given the Nigeria international permission to speak to the Champions League winners.
Moses, 21,
joined Wigan from Crystal Palace
on a three-and-a-half-year deal in January 2010 for a reported fee of £2.5m.
He scored six goals for the Latics last season, playing a key part in their successful bid to stay in the Premier League.
Wigan manager Roberto Martinez was impressed by the forward's performance against Chelsea in the Blues' 2-0 victory at the DW Stadium on Sunday.
