Valencia are set to lose another key player but you wouldn’t discern Tottenham Hotspur complaining about that. Goal.com reports that Spurs are ready to take the Portuguese full back Miguel from the Mestalla after the 28-year old Portuguese international fell out wit Valencia manager Ronald Koeman.

Koeman appears to be dropping all the senior players in his side and appears to be dropping points too. He is already under immense pressure by the Valencia fans who would be more than glad to see the back of him.

Spurs manager Jaunde Ramos is a long time admirer of Miguela and given his connections in Spain, it is more likely that should Miguel indeed end up in the Premiership this month, he could well end up at White Hart Lane. Ramos desires to strengthen his backline to boost Spurs’ chances of playing in Europe next season.

Chelsea were quiet in the transfer window in the summer and are relatively low profile this month too. Yet their scouts are searching throughout Europe the players that they would require to fill in certain gaps in the team for the rest of the season and one such player as identified by club manager Avram Grant is the Chelsea right back Miguel.

Sky Sports reports that Chelsea are eyeing Miguel and are inclined to sign him this month. Grant is not too sure about Portuguese international Paulo Ferreira in that position and although he has Juliano Belletti at his disposal, he would still like someone more solid..

Now that Valencia are going through an institutional crisis, Grant should be motivated to make the move. Of course the ideal player for Chelsea would be Dani Alves, whom many consider the best right back not only in La Liga but in the world, but he appears to be sticking to Sevilla at least for the rest of the season.

What do you think? Should Chelsea sign Miguel and instill more competition into the team? Would Miguel be a good signing for the Blues?
