  Chelsea weighing up bid for Real Madrid striker Benzema

  Chelsea are being linked with Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema.

  Blues boss Carlo Ancelotti has expressed interest in several strikers in recent weeks as he plans to find a long-term successor for Didier Drogba.

  Sampdoria striker Giampaolo Pazzini and Atletico Madrid's Sergio Aguero have both been linked with Chelsea.

  Cadena SER says Chelsea are also eyeing Benzema for an end-of-season move to London.

  Interestingly, Benzema's France teammate Nicolas Anelka talked up the youngster only this week.

  Haha, then in that case, i think chances of Benzema appearing in Stanford Bridge is higher than Old Trafford. Money talks.

  i think benzema is more suited for english game. strong and good runner with the ball. let me think of RVN.

   

  real dont like such player, they prefer classy and flambouyant type such as raul, villa,torres.

  Pazzini would be best value for money...................Fiorentina was foolish to ever let him go................
