Chelsea
Chelsea are leading the chase for Germany playmaker Sami Khedira. Stuttgart are reportedly ready to sell the 23-year-old for £12m now, rather than lose him on a free transfer when his contract expires next year.
Chelsea are set to snap up Portuguese attacking midfielder Raul Meireles for £15m. The Porto star, who impressed during the World Cup, is seen as the first stage in Ancelotti's midfield rebuilding programme after the departures of Michael Ballack and Joe Cole.
Chelsea Set to Make £65m Move for Liverpool Star Fernando Torres
Chelsea are rumoured to be lining up a record breaking £65m bid for Liverpool striker Fernando Torres. Carlo Ancelotti has been given the full backing of Stamford Bridge chairman Roman Abramovich to spend big to bring in the best talent around to help cement the west London clubs position as the Premier League champions. Roy Hodgsons arrival at the club has been greeted with a muted response from the Anfield playing squad and the Blues may feel that now is the time to attempt to snare the Spaniard.
Whilst its true that El Nino has not had the greatest of World Cups thus far he is undeniably one of the best strikers in Europe and with Chelseas current strike pairing of Didier Drogba and Nicolas Anelka both being the wrong side of 30 it is imperative that they plan for the future and have therefore targeted the 26 year old as a potential big name addition.
Chelsea Interested In £22m Rated German Starlet: Ancelotti Sets Sights On Thomas Muller
Sources in Germany are claiming that Bayern Munich man Thomas Muller is now Carlo Ancelottis number one summer transfer target. The young attacker has had a fantastic World Cup thus far, scoring four goals to help the Germans to the semi-finals.
The 20 year old adaptable attacker was a relative unknown until this season when he established himself as a crucial part of Louis Van Gaals side, scoring 19 goals during the Bavarian clubs double winning success. He has followed up with some superb performances for his country to make himself indispensable to Joachim Lows plans.
Ancelotti has been looking at various potential targets as he looks to freshen up his somewhat ageing Stamford Bridge side and has reportedly earmarked the powerfully built youngster as a signing he is very keen on making. He may have his work cut out however as Muller has only recently signed a new contract keeping him at the Allianz Arena until 2013 however the allure of a move to the Premier League may tempt the talented Munich man.
Roman Abramovich has stated that he would back Ancelottis attempts to bring in new faces following the departure of Michael Ballack and Joe Cole and the likely exit of Portuguese veteran Deco and would be more than happy to fund a move for the player thought to be valued at around £22m.
wow muller, khadera, torress..
thnx nutz for updtz
Vamos Espana
Initially Torres wanted to move to Barcelona , but after the arrival of Villa Braca closed that chapter...because of his Atletico Madrid connection he won't move to Real Madrid....since he played for Liverpool Man Utd is out of the equation...the only two club left is Chelsea and Man City...so to play in the Champions League..only Chelsea is there for him. No doubt Torres-Drogba combination will be deadly.
