Chelsea 'agree to sign Amelia'
The 33-year-old Italian, who has nine international caps, has been training at Stamford Bridge since the end of September.
In a post on Instagram, Amelia's agent Federico Pastorello said: "Dinner with #marcoamelia to celebrate the contract with Chelsea FC !!! Good luck !!"
Amelia was released by Milan in the summer of 2014 and has not had a long-term contract since.
He had a short term deal with Perugia at the end of last season but never made a first-team appearance. He will now train with Chelsea with the view to a contract.
Jose Mourinho is keen to have another goalkeeper as back up to Asmir Begovic, who is the only experienced goalkeeper in the squad that is currently fit to play.
First-choice Thibault Courtois is out until December with an injury while Jamal Blackman, who has deputised on the bench, is 21 and has never made an appearance for Chelsea.
