  Sevilla have said that talks with Chelsea about Daniel Alves could begin if the Blues made an opening bid of €30million (£20.2million), while Lyon's hopes of snatching Jesus Navas have been dashed.
  
  The Andalucian club are ready to play tough in order to hang on to their prize assets and have set the bar high for the Blues, according to AS.
  
  Jose Mourinho is a big fan of Alves, but will have to increase an opening bid of €25million (£16.8million) to even make the Sevilla president, Jose Maria del Nido listen.
  
  "If we receive a bid of €30m then we could start to talk," he said.
  
  While Alves is still a big part of the club's plans, Sevilla believe that he could be sacrificed if Chelsea were ready to pay such a huge sum.
  
  In recent seasons, the current Uefa Cup holders have sold Julio Baptista, Jose Antonio Reyes and Sergio Ramos and have continued to thrive.

  Actually i find Alves playing style very much the same as Glen Johnson. Not sure why Jose wants Alves though.
  
  Cheers.
