The 26-year-old central defender is set to be the inaugural acquisition of Enzo Maresca’s tenure at Stamford Bridge.
Adarabioyo, who has played for the last four years at Craven Cottage, amassed 132 appearances across all competitions for Fulham.
Despite interest from Newcastle and Liverpool, Chelsea emerged victorious in securing his signature, obtaining him on a free transfer.
Adarabioyo is scheduled to undergo a medical examination today before his official confirmation as a Chelsea player.
“The Club can confirm that Marek Rodak and Tosin will depart Fulham upon the expiry of their respective contracts at the end of this month,” a statement on Fulham’s official website read.
In the past two years, Chelsea have invested significantly in central defenders, but their success has been limited.
Kalidou Koulibaly was initially seen as Antonio Rudiger’s successor but only stayed for a single season before being sold to the Saudi Pro League.
