It is being reported in the Italian press that Juventus are very keen to sign Chelsea’s Brazilian central defender Alex. In response the Blues have also shown a willingness to do business with the Bianconeri ‘if” the Italians are willing to consider Alex and cash for their highly rated midfielder/winger Milos Krasic. Juventus will not want to lose Krasic but may be tempted because of their deep desire to acquire the services of central defensive rock Alex.

Milos Krasic had a very influential and excellent first season for Juve last term and has quickly become a fans favourite with the famous old Serie A club. Formerly with CSKA Moscow, the 6’1″ Serbian International is already being likened to another former Juventus great Pavel Nedved.

At 26-years-old Krasic is fast approaching his prime and plays right midfield or on the wing. He is very quick and with a tremendous shot on him he is not only a regular goal scorer but his assist statistics are very impressive. Being a strong running dribbler of the ball with natural attacking instincts Krasic is certainly the type of player AVB would be very interested in and would make a fabulous addition to the Chelsea first team squad.

This coming week will see negotiations between Chelsea and the Bianconeri open but only if Roman Abramovich decides to make the cash offer (as well as Alex) tempting enough for the Italians. This transfer window could still hold a couple of surprises for the Chelsea faithful with the imminent signing of Romelu Lukaku as well as one or two other players before the window closes. At the moment Krasic is a definite possibility.

With the sale of Yury Zhirkov Chelsea are looking particularly and decidedly ‘light’ in the wide left position with only Florent Malouda to speak of. Could it be that the club go back to consider Guus Hiddink’s original recommendation of Arden Turan of Galatasary as well? Then of course the club have not given up with the ongoing saga that is Luka Modric.

I’m now not only looking forward to the Stoke game but also the close of this transfer window to see who we have finally got and who is being released.

KTBFFH.

    if avb wants 2 sell alex,i would lyk his replacement 2 b gary cahill.no krasic or wateva deal pls,lets replace zhirkov wit arda turan and de brunye pls avb,then get modric or schweinstieger and one more right winger probably pablo hernandez or adam johnson or shaqiri or hazard or marin e.t.c although we sturrigde but injury can come in anytime and a rit back(v d w) and we will unbeatable dis season.am happy wit our progress on lukaku.i want anelka,malouda,bosingwa,kalou and ferreira 2 part ways wit us dis season.DAT will b seven gud forwards,seven midfielders and eight defenders(lalkovic is there),3 keepers making d number 25 for dis season

  2. Angelo Paul says:

    MODRIC is needed, then winger WALCOT

  3. Bluekid says:

    why is nobody bothered abt lampard? He is a legend but his time is up. Why wasting benayoun

    • holla says:

      gud one bluekid,but u shld always remember that is sentiments in football and favouritism.lamps is a good lad and has done so much for us,they cant just send him away,i mean it is just like sending paul scholes away,gerrard,etc.all this kind of players will always retire themselfs,so for lamps,but we need a creative midfielder and wingers

  4. tmicheal72 says:

    Chelsea need to sign Arda Turan as Maluda back up in other to have TURAN (LT) LAKAKU (CNT) STURAGE (RT) as the young forward.And also get Milos Krasic deal if possible but will bring in a replacement of Alex like Cahil or get work permit for RJakovic. Luka MOdic and Man City right back Richard is another significant sigin for chelsea while Aneka, Kaluo, ferarra and Bosingwa all have to leave the club. this is bles success.

  5. Bob says:

    This guy aint all that also we need them younger than 26.turan/matta,hazard and modric all we need after lukaku.

  6. oladimeji says:

    this will be a better deal because it will make the midfield stronger, but we need to plan ahead for shortage of defenders at the long run.

  7. kaka says:

    Chelsea should buy one among turan or elia as the winger and douglas costa as the att midfielder. Then it is game on……

    • blue says:

      wat a useless lineup. why is everyone out of position. vdw is no where near to iva’s technical ability and vdw is far worse then our backup ferrira. The best lineup would be

      Cech
      ivan,alex,terry,cole
      mikel/luiz
      ramirez josh
      modric
      sturridge, Torres

  9. Hammed Abdullahi says:

    We hav josh mc, chelsea shud get winger Adam Jonhson & probably fabrigas 4 creativity to TORRES.

  10. Adam johnson or turan is d man will need in wing and make sure u get modric.
