Chelsea steal a march on rivals with early bid for highly rated Serbian
Chelsea are in talks to sign 18 year-old Lazar Markovic from Partizan Belgrade.
The Serbian has scored 6 goals already this season for Partizan Belgrade, in his 14 Serbian Super League appearances.
Arsenal, Liverpool and Inter Milan have all been in talks with Partizan, who are said to want a deal worth a total of £14m, depending on appearances.
The Partizan midfielder is set to snub such offers to come to Stamford Bridge, to work with Serbia captain Branislav Ivanovic.
The 18 year-old has already made 6 senior appearances at international level, scoring in last months friendly against Chile.
Ivanovic is said to have recommended the youngster to Chelsea back-room staff, and the club are apparently close to a deal.
Another great young prospect appears to be close to signing on the dotted line for Chelsea. The future looks bright, especially with our current squad full of young talent already. Can you ever have too much young raw talent? I think not…
I don’t think Chelsea can have too much young talent, but I don’t think we manage them correctly! We have sooo many of the best young talents in the world but they never get a chance, ex: Lukaku, Bruma, Courtois, McEachren, etc. and we just keep buying and buying more, what about the ones we already have. Look what happened to Kakuta. I think we rely to much on the young players in our squad now in this new squad of ours.
get him man this is good all he young players will be form as b team like mechcran,bruma,couratious,lukaku,lazar markovic,bamford,marin debruyne,thorgan,vananholt this will be great
