The striker said “‘If I said there wasn’t anything in it, I would be lying” according to the Daily Mail. This all but confirms that their have been talks been Hulk and Chelsea. Hulk is very interested in a move to the Premier League, having spent one season in Russia with Zenith St Petersburg.

The striker is said to fed up with life in Russia and wants to move to a top European club and Chelsea would fit the bill. Jose Mourinho wants to strengthen his striking options for next season and wants a strong, physical presence upfront, in the mould of Didier Drogba. Hulk would certainly do that for Chelsea and can also be flexible having played on the wing before for former club Porto. Chelsea appear ready to offer £35 million for Hulk but Zenith want close to £50 million for a player they only signed last summer.
