Exclusive: Chelsea Boss Jose Mourinho Lines Up £75m Real Madrid Trio Raid

Posted by

Jose Mourinho also hopes to lure midfield powerhouse Sami Khedira to Stamford Bridge as he feels he needs to add more steel to his Chelsea midfield.

With speculation rife that Mourinho is ready to allow John Obi Mikel to leave the club and with Oriol Romeu already having been loaned out to Valencia, the Chelsea boss has been linked with a number of midfield targets.

The arrival of Asier Illarramendi will no doubt lead German international Khedira wondering about his long term future at Real Madrid, with the £29m signing a direct rival of his starting spot under new boss Carlo Ancelotti.

Khedira was one of Mourinho’s first signings as Real Madrid boss and is one of the few players in the club’s squad that retained a good working relationship with the 50 year old manager during the latter stages of his tenure and the Chelsea manager will be backed by Blues owner Roman Abramovich to make a significant bid for his services.

Mourinho is ready to offer up to £30m for the former Stuttgart man.
