Chelsea are ready to take advantage of Barcelona's bid for Cesc
Fabregas by launching a £30million raid for Dani Alves this
summer.
It is understood the Brazil full back, widely renowned as the
finest right back in the world, has emerged as Carlo Ancelotti's
top transfer priority when the window re-opens at the end of the
season and the Catalan club could be forced to sell.
According to reports in Spain the reigning European champions
are close to agreeing a five-year deal worth £5.7m per year with
the Arsenal captain but they may have to offload one or two big
names to fund the mega money transaction.

Chelsea's No 1 transfer priority
The Blues would have no problem meeting the Brazilian's mooted
£100,000 per week wage demands but could face competition from big
spending Barclays Premier League rivals Manchester City should he
become available.
