Chelsea are ready to make a
final bid for Bayern Munich star Franck Ribery.
The Daily Star says Carlo
Ancelotti admits the winger is likely to stay at
Bayern Munich or move to Real
Madrid. But the Blues are desperate to land the
former Lyon star.
Yuri Zhirkov became Chelsea’s third signing yesterday, joining
for £18m after the previous arrivals of Daniel Sturridge and
goalkeeper Ross Turnbull.
But he is not the type of fantasy player that both new boss
Ancelotti and the Chelsea fans want. Ribery would come into that
equation, but it looks like Chelsea are fighting a losing
battle.
If Chelsea do not get anywhere, they will instead turn to Real
Madrid’s Dutch midfielder Wesley Sneijder.
