Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has made an inquiry into the availability of Benfica forward Rodrigo Moreno, according to A Bola.
The Blues have already made several attacking reinforcements this summer, while they are also hoping to sign Wayne Rooney from Manchester United.
Nevertheless, A Bola has learned that Chelsea are also showing interest in Benfica starlet Rodrigo.
The interesting thing is that Jose Mourinho arrived at Santiago Bernabeu just as the forward was leaving los Blancos for Benfica, but the Portuguese manager has closely monitored the player’s progress over the years.
As a result, he is convinced Rodrigo can be a good addition to the squad at Stamford Bridge and could even attempt to sign him this summer.
The 22-year-old, who came through the youth ranks at Real Madrid, has scored 16 goals in 42 Primeira Liga appearances for the Eagles.
He already has some Premier League experience, having spent the 2010/2011 season on loan with Bolton.
