Serbian star is tipped to snub Liverpool and sign for Chelsea
Chelsea are closing in on the £6m signing of Serbia’s teenage star Lazar Markovic, according to The Sun.
The Partizan Belgrade striker, 19, is tipped to snub Liverpool and Inter Milan.
Meanwhile, Jose Mourinho will be handed a £100m transfer kitty if he returns to Chelsea, the Daily Mirror say.
It comes after the former Blues boss again hinted he is on the way back to Stamford Bridge from Real Madrid, saying: “I want to be where I love to be and where people love me.”
It is claimed Chelsea owner owner Roman Abramovich is ready to give Mourinho plenty of money to spend.
Everton’s Marouane Fellaini and Southampton’s highly-rated teenage left-back Luke Shaw are said to be among the players Chelsea are interested in along with Atletico Madrid star Radamel Falcao.
Abramovich is also apparently ready to bankroll a £20m move for Bayern Leverkusen’s Andre Schurrle, who is believed to have agreed personal terms on a five-year deal.
