Now Chelsea want Tevez?


With all the hoopla surrounding Ronaldo, Kaka, Villa and Ribery, it would seem as though everyone's forgotten about Carlos Tevez. Apparently not.

Carlo Ancelotti, who has made no signings since being appointed at Chelsea, is reportedly interested in bringing in Carlos Tevez to Stamford Bridge. Reports say the Italian has personally approached Tevez and wants the Argentine star to be part of his so-called "revolution" at Stamford Bridge.

If these reports are true, it will come as a huge blow to the likes of Mark Hughes who just can't get seem to get anyone besides Gareth Barry to join his "revolution" at Man City. (Seems like there's just too many revolutions going on at the moment..).

Liverpool fans who've been harboring some hope of seeing Tevez line-up along side Fernando Torres next season may also have to give that dream up seeing as to how Benitez is about ready spend GBP17 million on Glen Johnson.

As for theories on the net Ferguson will utilise part of the cash raised from the sale of Ronaldo to buy Tevez? I somehow don't see that materialising because Fergie could've bought him a season ago when he had all that cash he ended up using to buy the Bulgarian version of Le Sulk.

And so far, Bayern Munich have confirmed United are interested in Ribery and with the way footballers are being priced these days, I don't think Fergie will have much left in his transfer budget for someone like Tevez. If United get Ribery, that is.

Munich have yet to put a price tag on the Frenchman yet but earlier in the year, the club's general manager, Uli Hoeness slapped a EURO150 million tag on Ribery and I'm guessing after Ronaldo, the price may have gotten a little higher.

But I've been digressing a little here. If Tevez does go to Chelsea, Ancelotti will perhaps have the strongest attacking line-up in England. The Argentine has previously shown his abilities in adapting to different styles of play quite quickly and should he develop an understanding with Drogba, Anelka and Lampard, the Blues will definitely be in the running for both the Premiership and the Champions League next season.
