Martinez has been a massive success since moving to Primeira Liga side FC Porto 18 months ago, scoring 43 goals in 53 appearances in all competitions and Jose Mourinho may well feel that the powerful forward is the ideal man to lead his Blues attack.
Chelsea have been outscored by Arsenal, Liverpool and Man City this season and more worryingly of the West London club’s total of 18 Premier League goals only four were provided by the club’s striking complement of Samuel Eto’o, Andre Schurrle, Fernando Torres and Demba Ba, a clear indication that the Stamford Bridge side could do with a truly prolific forward to convert chances created by the club’s creative talents.
