Chelsea reportedly want to bring former Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso back to the Premier League after the Spain international snubbed new contract talks at Real Madrid. Jose Mourinho’s former player is understood to be keen on being re-united with the Chelsea boss after the 32-year-old’s contract negotiations stalled once more.
It is no secret that Mourinho is not happy with the midfield ranks at his disposal and the Chelsea boss would be delighted to pick up his former playmaker from Real Madrid. He does not fit the bill of the dynamic, powerful midfielder that he was previously believed to be targeting, but a player of his class would undoubtedly strengthen Chelsea. The best bet? Alonso is likely still hankering for an improved deal at the Spanish giants.
