2- Hulk- Zenit St Petersburg
The Brazilian striker has been one of Europe’s most wanted strikers for many seasons now, right back to his days playing at Porto. Hulk made a £35 million move to Zenit only last summer, however, reports have suggested that the striker is considering his place in Russia. The striker has struggled to adapt to life in Russia and it is believed that he wants to move to one of Europe’s bigger clubs and Chelsea have been rumoured to be a possible destination.
Hulk himself has already suggested that there have been talks between himself and Chelsea and the striker has said that he will decide his future after the Confederations Cup in Brazil. Mourinho is on the look out for a strong, physical striker and Hulk certainly fits the bill, with his power and pace able to scare opposition defenders. One possible problem for Chelsea could be that Zenit will demand a huge transfer fee for a player they only signed a year ago. The Russian club are thought to be demanding £50 million for Hulk and want to at least make a profit on the striker. Chelsea are unlikely to pay that and the Blues will need to get Zenit down to a more reasonable asking price.
