The 29 year old goalkeeper reportedly had his Chelsea medical on Tuesday ahead of signing a two-year deal with Chelsea.
Bettinelli will provide cover for Edouard Mendy and Kepa Arrizabalaga at Stamford Bridge and replaces Willy Caballero, who was released this summer.
Bettinelli spent the 2020/21 campaign on loan at Middlesbrough, making 42 appearances as they finished 10th in the Championship.
The 29 year old goalkeeper is set to become Chelsea’s first signing of the summer.
