lazar markovic to chelsea?


Chelsea chief Roman Abramovich is setting up a sensational swoop for Serbian starlet Lazar Markovic ­– the teenage forward rated at a staggering £14million.

Abramovich is making his move for the Partizan Belgrade hitman after Liverpool were scared off by the price tag.

The Stamford Bridge chief has put some of his best agent allies on the case to land Markovic, who could go straight into the first team.

Lazar Markovic new (via LianSportsGmbH)

this is what he said last year...
I really hope I can go to Chelsea, it's my dream,’ said Markovic.

‘I'm told there were 20 scouts from all over Europe in the VIP box when we beat Red Star.

‘But Chelsea is the place I want to play. I had all the pictures of the team on my wall at home back to when they had Gianfranco Zola.

‘And any time they are on TV I try to watch them. For me Chelsea are the best.

‘I want to go to the Premier League. It is the best league in the world.’

"Lazar's biggest assets are his dribbling abilities, able to control the ball with both feet and find his way towards the goal from almost every position on the field.

The teenager is usually used as a right forward, but he can play at all attacking positions, including as a winger on both flanks- a position in which he may be used at more frequently in the future, due to his small body size and quick pace."

First time hearing him

He looks pretty good on YouTube mixes, but YouTube mixes make anyone look good.
Anyone seen him play before? Is he worth £14 million?

Lukaku hasn't cost us 18 million though

The fee was around 12 million and could rise as high as 18 based on appearances here.

I presume we'll end up splashing out on a decent striker this summer no matter who is in charge

So more competition for Lukaku tho he probably will end up on loan won’t he. Who was the most expensive teenager? Rooney I suppose. Soon to be Neymar maybe

Lukaku is 18 and was never supposed to be our striker for the present

and we got him at whatever fee we did b/c we didn’t want to have to pay triple that in the future.

I will see

Roman keeping Torres. He has too big an ego to sell him now.

Supposedly he sells him, we’ll most probably buy another big name striker, think Higuain and Cavani.

That will hinder Lukaku’s development to me, as I don’t see Lukaku playing more than 15 matches a season.

Drogba is bound to leave anyways, so let’s see what AVB does next.

I've seen him

Very good, surprised we haven’t moved for him earlier.

We can't sign him...

He play on the right side. We don’t buy players who are right sided, everyone knows that. I thought we were trying to field an all left footed side??

When I go to the press conference before the game, in my mind the game has already started.
