Chelsea ponder a move for Barca star

Chelsea are prepared to go the extra mile in order to sign Barca midfielder Sergio Busquets with the Blues set to offer the player a hefty pay rise.

Busquets’ current contract at Barcelona doesn’t suit the player of his qualities and the Catalans are ready to offer the player a new deal, although they face a stiff competition from Chelsea, who look keen on the Spain international.

Carlo Ancelotti wants to rejuvenate his pretty old squad and he should look no further than Busquets, as the Spaniard has got the quality to immediately step into the side, while he can also be regarded as one for the future.

The player’s representatives are aware of Chelsea interest, but Busquets himself is eager to remain at Camp Nou, where he has already established himself as one of the key players in Pep Guardiola’s side.

Nonetheless, with Guardiola’s future at Camp Nou still in the balance, the midfielder may change his mind about staying should his mentor leave the club.
