Jose Mourinho wants to sign Hulk for Chelsea, according to the Daily Star.
It is claimed that Mourinho has already opted to leave Real Madrid and return to Stamford Bridge at the end of the season.
His agent Jorge Mendes is said to have held talks with Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich and his advisers, with the former Blues boss verbally agreeing to take over on a £12m-a-year salary.
And it is claimed that his top target is striker Hulk, who was linked with a move to west London prior to his £42m transfer from Porto to Zenit St Petersburg in September.
Mourinho apparently wants a major shake-up at Chelsea, including the axing of technical director Michael Emenalo, so he has full control over transfers.
Meanwhile, the Daily Mirror say Swansea are keen to take Romelu Lukaku on loan from Chelsea next season.
And the Daily Express suggest Chelsea are interested in Jupp Heynckes, who is leaving Bayern Munich this summer and reportedly may reconsider his decision to retire.
