<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post"> Lyon have moved to reject suggestions of a deal with Chelsea that will see Florent Malouda head to Stamford Bridge this summer. Jose Mourinho is an admirer of the France international winger, while fellow Premier League club Liverpool are also understood to be keen. Malouda has stated his desire to leave Stade Gerland in the summer in search of a new challenge abroad and The Blues were reportedly close to striking a deal. However, that is not the case, according to Lyon head of communications Olivier Blanc, who also laughed off talk of a swap involving Lassana Diarra. Blanc insists any agreement is still some way off and that the French champions have no interest in the swap deal offered by Chelsea. "Contrary to what I've heard, there is no agreement with Chelsea about Malouda, and absolutely nothing about a swap deal with Lassana Diarra we turned down a fortnight ago," he told French press. Meanwhile, Blanc has revealed midfielder Tiago is set to depart Lyon, with Juventus his likely destination. The Portuguese ace has been tracked by both Juve and Sampdoria but is expected to join the former for a fee in the region of ?15million (?10million). Blanc added: "Tiago could be the first of our players to leave this summer." </div> Source: Sky Sports - The Best Sport Coverage From Around The World
I don't think we'll get him or that we should be trying. So far we have only been buying players to cover for injury and I don't think Chelsea have the right mind set.
I dont think hell start for chelsea..thats for sure, chelsea dont really need to sign any big players except for 1 good defender after they lost gallas. Hell end up going to Liverpool or Arsenal.
