It has previously been reported that Chelsea are interested in Manchester City’s unsettled striker Carlos Tevez, and may be willing to pay big money to prise the Argentine off the Eastlands club, but it’s also believed that the Citizens would be unwilling to sell to another Premier League club, even if they meet the asking price.
However, according to the Manchester Evening News, the rumour could have some legs in it yet as Blues may be willing to offer Didier Drogba as well as £30m to sweeten the deal.
Many have suggested that Drogba would be unwilling to play second fiddle to Fernando Torres, and considering the Ivorian’s age, length of current contract and Torres’ £50m fee, it’s inevitable that if one of them has to take a step back or leave, it’ll be Drogba.
That’s unless the Chelsea duo manage to forge an effective strike partnership, but they have been unable to do so as yet and some quarters of the media suggest that the club may be looking for an alternative forward to partner their record signing.
It’s believed that Tevez wants out of City as he is missing his family, who are reluctant to live in Manchester, but if they would move to London remains to be seen.
i would bite the sheiks arm off what a deal this would be i was gutted that we didnt get him when he left the munichs could you imagine an in form torres paired with tevez wow
