http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Oscar-c28720 with a move to the London club.
The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Internacional-c39573 midfielder has reportedly been on the Blues radar for quite some time, with the team now looking to wrap things up as soon as they can.
It is believed that the team has failed in their initial attempts to land the player, with the club rejecting a bid said to be worth around twenty million pounds.
Despite the initial bid being rejected, it was believed that Oscar went on to have a medical with the Blues, after he was given some time off from the Olympic team.
When asked about the medical and whether Oscar would be joining the team in the near future, Di Matteo responded by stating: “I can tell you that he's not a Chelsea player so it's difficult for me to talk about a player that doesn't belong to us”
“I know there has been speculation we are interested in this player and in due course if there is anything to announce we will do. All I would say is that he is a very young, talented midfield player.”
He then went on to talk about Malouda, as he admitted that the player was back, but he still needed to talk to him about his future.
“Players are now slowly returning, Malouda was back today and we expect the others to come when we are on the east coast.”
“I still haven't had a chance to speak to Florent, so I need to speak to him first and see what his intentions are, then we will see what the best interests are for him and the club.”
Chelsea and Di Matteo have a lot of work cut out for them, if they are to try and build on last year’s success.
The team won the Champions League and will now have to win at least one trophy this season, in order to try and keep the team and the fans going.
Nonetheless, should they manage to land Oscar, then achieving that feat might become a whole lot easier.
