Mourinho Plays Down Chelsea Link With Pogba

But before we get stuck into the Mourinho stuff, there are a couple of other press conferences that have taken place this morning that will prove interesting to Chelsea fans.

And according to Italian journalist Tancredi Palmeri, the Premier League champions have made a move for the 22-year-old.

Rumored to be heading to every major club at one point or another this summer, Paul Pogba could soon be playing his football at Stamford Bridge.

Juventus are still interested in Cuadrado and now Pedro has come in Chelsea are willing to sell.

‘For me, everything started with the fact that we understood that the player was ready to leave the club of his dreams, of his heart and where he was a kid.

The Express & Star say Albion are unwilling to pay that but believe a compromise can be reached between the two clubs before the transfer window closes. I am happy with this approach’.

Chelsea are in pole position to sign Pedro after Manchester United’s interest in the Barcelona winger cooled. To add a player with a pedigree such as the Spaniard’s into their ranks, the champions can look to an early resurgence with a renewed sense of optimism. Everybody has trained well this week though, possibly harder than they have ever trained because of the bad result from the weekend. Cuadrado has not produced to goods, which leaves Mourinho still on the hunt for a real top class winger.

Ed Chamberlin is joined by Jamie Redknapp to discuss the Super Sunday fixtures as West Brom host Chelsea and Man City travel to Everton.

However, he couldn’t resist a swipe at Juve coach Massimilano Allegri.
