Italian insider says Chelsea target has chosen his destination

That leaves Chelsea and Barcelona empty handed, as he puts it.

Not long ago it seemed like Barcelona were at the head of the queue, but maybe the tide has turned towards the Spanish capital now.

Certainly we always looked like a long shot up against those two, especially if we miss out on the Champions League, and definitively if we are hit with our transfer ban.

We will at least get a chance to take on the striker in the Europa League semi finals, and see if maybe Roman can  have a quiet word in his ear somewhere along the line.
