Andrea Ranocchia

Chelsea looks forward to trump Arsenal, Tottenahm Hotspur and Manchester United to sign Inter Milan’s centre-back, Andrea Ranocchia, according to Express.

The Italian defender has had very few first team appearances under Inter manager Walter Mazzarri. The club is ready to sell the Italian international in the upcoming January transfer window.

Reports in Italy suggest that Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho is ready to rope in the defender as he looks to sell David Luiz in the January transfer window.

Mourinho is willing to let David Luiz leave the club with Barcelona keen to sign the Brazilian centre-back  for long-term at Camp Nou.
