After the last rumors from Chelsea regarding the firing of Carlo Ancelotti, news flashed out from each corner about his successor for Abramovich’s team. Ancelotti is reserved in declarations about his possible departure.

Carlo Ancelotti: “I do not know what the future holds. At the end of the season, the club can decide if they want to continue with me or change me. If they are not satisfied, than they can easily change me. This is not a problem.”

The primer subject in replacement at Stamford Bridge is Pep Guardiola, the main target and 1st enemy of Carlo Ancelotti.

Ancelotti will be sacked after the Champions League elimination and Abramovich has set his sights on who created the current Barcelona team.

Guardiola recently signed a 12-month extension at Barcelona. But this won’t stop Abramovich, who hopes to lure him to coach in England, especially as he recently said he will not stay long on the Camp Nou.

Will Abramovich succeed in his attempts? Like all the time, the money will make the difference in my opinion. Keep close for more info’s.

Jose wants to refresh Real’s line of attack, a line held back this season after Gonzalo Higuain injury and with a Karim Benzema that needed to place for both. Mourinho believes Chicharito Hernandez is the perfect man to complete the actions of colleagues.

Real hopes to lure him to Spain and will make a significant offer for the 22 years old striker, Hernandez. He had a season more than expected, especially as he has managed to face in recent weeks even the team’s leading scorer, Dimitar Berbatov.
Mourinho is also interested in the midfielder of the Champions League opponent, Sandro. He’s seen as the perfect replacement for Lassana Diarra, who almost certainly will leave this summer.
