Chelsea target Hulk’s agent Teodoro Fonseca has revealed that there are other clubs besides the London side interested in signing his client.
However, Fonseca admitted there was still a big possibility that the 25-year-old could continue to remain with the Portuguese giants. Hulk has been linked with a move away from FC Porto since last summer and according to reports, his likely destination seems
to be London.
The Blues have retained their interest in the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Didier-Drogba-c11044. Chelsea could be offering as much as 38 million pounds for the Brazilian striker.
Hulk himself has distanced himself from speculation, claiming he wanted to leave the decision up to his agent as he was planning to focus entirely on the upcoming London Olympics. Fonseca confirmed that while the Blues were favourites to sign the striker,
there were other clubs involved.

“The Blues [http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Costa-c9458 but there have been no advances on this subject.”
Meanwhile, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Porto-c39186 are determined to retain the services of one of their best players and have made it very clear to Hulk and his agent. This is why there is a possibility that Hulk could end up staying with the Portuguese side for yet another season.

“The club want him to stay and we have received the offer of a new deal.
If Hulk stays in Porto then there is no problem as he is happy in Porto. He has had three years of interest from big European clubs and he still plays in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Portugal-c2984.”

have to step up their efforts if they wish to sign him.
