Kenedy has travelled to Canada to join up with the Chelsea squad on their North American tour with his arrival expected to be officially announced within the next few hours.
The 19 year old was pictured with his new team mates in Montreal with his signature estimated to have cost the club just over £6 million.
No formal announcement of the deal has been released but yesterday Oscar tweeted a picture of the youngster with a message welcoming him to Chelsea.
It is unlikely that Kenedy will receive any playing time in the near future at Chelsea which will probably lead to him spending this season on loan at Vitesse Arnhem.
