Chelsea looking to sell two players
Even at Chelsea there has to be some attempt to balance the books – and it looks like the Blues are prepared to sell two players before the start of the season.
Damien Duff has been moved down the pecking order at Chelsea with all the new players and manager Jose Mourinho has said that he is prepared to let him go – citing the players lack of playing time as the main reason why he wanted to leave.
Tottenham have been touted as the club most likely to sign him, although they’ll probably have to double thier initial bid of £5m in order to capture the player.
Elsewhere the pending purchase of (C)Ashley Cole from Arsenal, and Roberto Carlos from Real Madrid mean that the incumbant left back Asier Del Horno is likely to be on his way too.
Valencia are the favoured destination at this stage – and the fee looks to be a small one of less than £5m.
