Stamford Bridge side ready to splash the cash.
Chelsea
owner Roman Abramovich is ready to fund incoming Blues boss Jose
Mourinho to the tune of £100m as the Russian billionaire looks to make a
major statement of intent during the summer transfer window.
The Daily Mirror
claims that Mourinho has told Abramovich he needs a minimum of six new
additions to help reinforce a Chelsea squad that finished some 14 points
off the Premier League title pace and fell at the first Champions
League hurdle this season.
It would appear that Chelsea’s strike-force, or perhaps lack thereof, is an area that Mourinho sees as in most need of repair.

Radamel Falcao
tops the outgoing Real Madrid boss’s list of potential striker signings
and Mourinho feels he has the upper hand on prospective buyers Monaco
and Manchester City in the battle to sign Colombian superstar Falcao
from Atletico Madrid.
Mourinho shares the same agent Falcao and
believes this connection could help him snap up the prolific forward,
who has scored 70 goals in 90 appearances for Atletico Madrid.

Zenit forward Hulk
is apparently a back-up option and Roman Abramovich’s connections with
the Russian Premier League side could aid any move for the powerful
Brazilian.

Chelsea are already in talks to sign Bayer Leverkusen forward Andre Schurrle,
who is a target that pre-dates Mourinho’s planned return but is
nonetheless a player the 50 year old Portuguese boss rates highly.

Jose Mourinho plans to raid former club FC Porto to land French defender Eliaquim Mangala who may well be considered a long term replacement for John Terry.
The
French Under 21 international is considered by many as one of the best
young talents in Europe and clearly a move for the former Standard Liege
player adheres to Roman Abramovich’s youthful transfer policy. Mangala
has helped FC Porto to back to back domestic titles in his two seasons
in Portugal.

Jose Mourinho wants Malaga youngster Isco,
a player who has emerged as one of the hottest prospects in Spanish
football. Given that the La Rosaleda side have lost manager Manuel
Pellegrini and been banned from European competition next season it
seems highly likely that the Spanish international playmaker will leave
this summer and could be tempted by a move to Stamford Bridge.
Isco
has netted 11 goals from midfield this season and was particularly
impressive in Malaga’s run to the Champions League quarter-finals.

Everton powerhouse Marouane Fellaini
is another name on the Mourinho wish-list and similarly to Malaga the
Toffees uncertain future without David Moyes at the helm could be a
factor in any move for the club’s top performers, of which the Belgian
is certainly one.
The 25 year old has had an excellent season and
will have a host of potential suitors, the fact that the Belgian
international has stated publicly his desire to play Champions League
football may well leave Chelsea feeling they have a decent chance of
snapping the midfielder uFacebook Blogger Plugin by Kibonajoro
