Chelsea manager Andre Villas-Boas has hinted at FC Porto star Hulk joining the Blues in the next transfer window.
The former FC Porto boss has had his eye on the Brazilian forward for some time now, ever since he joined the Blues in the summer transfer window. It was Hulk who helped Villas-Boas to a fantastic season at the Portuguese club, which is why it comes as no
surprise that he could try and maneuver the player to Stamford Bridge.
With the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 for the FC Porto star.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Florent-Malouda-c13838 currently has another year on his existing contract, but lack of regular football could inspire him to look elsewhere in the summer. That would leave a lot of positions open at Chelsea and Villas-Boas could easily bring in Hulk.
Villas-Boas said in an interview:
“We have Kalou and Malouda, both of whom are nearing the end of their contracts, while Juan Mata and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Daniel-Sturridge-c10076 are the future.
As such, there will surely be a place to fill and I see room for an explosive player on the wing, someone who is strong in one-on-one situations and Hulk fits that profile.”
With Chelsea not doing too well recently, Villas-Boas was speculated to face the axe soon. When he spotted sitting next to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nuno-Pinto-c28241 da Costa in the Europa League clash against Manchester United, he was questioned on a possible
return to FC Porto.
He revealed:
“I was very proud to be invited by http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Costa-c9458 to sit next to him. Returning to Porto will always be a huge source of pride, but right now I am completely motivated with my work at Chelsea.”
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Hulk-c16436 is not the only FC Porto Villas-Boas has his eyes on, the likes of Joao Moutinho and Pereira are also on his shopping list for the summer.
Villas-Boas continued:
“They could surely play in the Premier League and at Chelsea."
