Chelsea ready to nic Nic
-
CHELSEA are to make a fresh bid for Nicolas Anelka, after it emerged the £10million-rated striker has a way out of Bolton.
Anelka and Wanderers have a gentlemenÂ’s agreement he can leave in January should a Champions League club make a serious offer.
That news is all the encouragement Blues boss Avram Grant needs to swoop when the transfer window opens in just over eight weeks.
Grant has been an Anelka fan ever since he was technical director at Portsmouth before becoming the Chelsea chief.
Anelka signed a new four-year Trotters contract in August but on condition he could leave if a top-four team showed interest and were willing to cough up around £10m.
The French ace, 28, is in great form and has scored three goals in his last five games.
He would be eligible to play in the later rounds of the Champions League this season, despite having featured in the UEFA Cup with Wanderers.
That will be key for Chelsea, as Ivory Coast striker Didier Drogba will miss up to eight weeks of club action at the start of 2008 while playing in the African Cup of Nations.
Drogba has already gone public with his wish to leave in the summer, as he cannot come to terms with the exit of boss Jose Mourinho.
And £30m flop Andriy Shevchenko also still has to prove himself.
Chelsea are tracking Lokomotiv Moscow defender Branislav Ivanovic and midfielder Diniyar Bilyaletdinov as well. -
