Chelsea FC dilemma on three top quality playmakers

Ganso is another option for Chelsea should things fail with regards to Modric and MoutinhoChelsea FC are facing a dilemma on three of the World’s finest playmakers with the Stamford Bridge club running out of time with the transfer window closing in six days time.

The Luka Modric deal is one that has stuck to the back pages all summer however Villas Boas’ side are reportedly ready to offer an astounding £30m plus Yossi Benayoun and Daniel Sturridge on loan for the Croatian. With Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy unprepared to sell with only a few days of the transfer window remaining, it could be that Chelsea will look to the other options more seriously.

One of those is Porto playmaker João Moutinho, who, whilst younger that Modric does not have Premier league experience but could be available at a more reasonable cost of around £22m-£25m. The POrtugal international has had rave reviews after their Europa League success and is a player Villas Boas would love to have back on his side however Porto are not looking to sell the creative midfielder and Chelsea will need to move fast if they want to seal the deal.

Chelsea FC’s third option is that of the young Brazilian Paulo Henrique Ganso who are 21 years old has the future at his feet. It seems more probable that the Stamford Bridge club could land him than his fellow countryman Neymar who has requested odd additions to a deal that would send him to West London.

Ganso could be available for £20m although Brazilian side Santos, the same owners of Neymar, would prefer to look at selling the young international in January, a time that may already be too late for Chelsea.

With three to choose from and only six days left to get the paperwork in order it is unclear how much pressure the board and management will feel under. Mata is certainly someone who can fill the void but as for depth, creativity in midfield is something that Chelsea are currently still lacking.
