Mourinho to hijack Arsenal midfielder move
Chelsea and Arsenal could also be in direct competition for another top talent as the Blues look set to step up their interest in William Carvalho, according to the Daily Mirror.
The Sporting Lisbon midfielder, 22, is one of the most sought after young talents in Europe at the moment and has also been linked with Manchester United in recent times, though Chelsea are now thought to be leading the chase for his signature.
Jose Mourinho is known to keep an eye out on the best talent from his native Portugal, and has had scouts watch Carvalho play recently.
