Rapahel Varane – Real Madrid (£30m)
Competition might be the key reason Varane would want out of the Santiago Bernabeu with Ramos and Pepe the sure started under Carlo Ancelotti.
It was Mourinho who first brought him to Real Madrid and given the age of John Terry and the relative lack of decent cover the Blues have in their squad – they compete with four centre-backs this season – it’s a move that makes sense.
Joao Miranda – Atletico Madrid (£22m)
Club technical director Michael Emenalo visited Spain to watch Miranda in April and with one-year left on the Brazilian’s contract Atletico could look to cash in whilst Chelsea could get a cut price deal.
