Rumoured Andriy Yarmolenko

[milka 3,390]

Chelsea are weighing up a £12million move for Dinamo Kiev winger Andriy Yarmolenko.

Although Russian born, the 24-year-old is one of the stars of Ukraine's national side along with Liverpool target Yevhen Konoplyanka of Dnipro.

Yarmolenko is 6ft 2ins, quick, powerful and has a decent goals record with 54 in 146 games for Kiev and 15 in 39 for the national side.

Kiev wanted £20m for the left-footed Yarmolenko last summer but are willing to sell for less now.

He has been reluctant to leave Kiev and but a move to London appeals and Roman Abramovich's connections could smooth the way.

Liverpool have shown an interest in the past as have Arsenal but had concerns about the player's consistency.

Liverpool, meanwhile have spoken to Bayern Munich about the cost of Xherdan Shaqiri as Southampton continue to demand £25m for Adam Lallana.

Strange - do we need another winger with Hazard, Shirley and Salad?

[petre.ispirescu 4,928]

To be honest, I won't be surprised if this is true and Jose has set his sights on him. The guy is the closest thing to Robben in European football.

[Duppy Conqueror 1,527]

He's a winger/forward..has a decent goal scoring record for Ukraine and in club football..scored 20 odd goals this season..

[BlueLyon 9,359]

He would cost like 25m and I doubt all our AMs would be happy with spit playing time, but if thats the case I would rather go after Sanchez, Draxler or someone who has more experience and isnt such risk like this guy who I doubt realy has the quality to be better than Oscar, willian or Schurrle.

[Magic Lamps 11,692]

He'd only cost about 15m as his contract will expire next year. But honestly, we already got an army of wingers. would only make sense if one of our main wingers Hazard, Schürrle, Willian, Salah would leave or injure himself. And even in that case, maybe Atsu or Piazon could make up for that (esp if only Salah was injured).

btw I just realized that Yarmolenko almost looks like myself. lol.

[quickpassnmove 924]

I highly rate this guy. A gem ready to shine at a higher level, one can hope. Definitely looked one of the most dangerous players in the Euro 2012

Ibarbo, Cuadrado and Yarmolenko are forwards on my shortlist.

[lucio 5,418]

can he play striker?

[King11Didier 916]

Hope this is true.It would be great to see him in Chelsea's shirt.

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has been spotted on a possible scouting mission as he attended this week’s Euro 2016 qualifier between Spain and Ukraine.

According to the Independent, the Blues boss may have been keeping an eye on Dynamko Kiev winger Andriy Yarmolenko, who has attracted attention from a number of top clubs.

The 25-year-old has been in sparkling form for club and country, following up his impressive tally of 19 goals from midfield last season with eight in his first 13 games for Dynamo this term.

After Chelsea’s lacklustre start to the season, Mourinho maybe looking to improve his attacking options, with summer signing Pedro yet to settle and Eden Hazard out of form.

armolenko told Korrespondent: Mourinho was at this game? I dont know what to say, how do I know why he came?

I didnt know that he was at the game, I was thinking about something else about the important game against Spain

Ask him who he was looking at.

His height really helped out vs Dave. However, he doesn't seem particularly fast and not the mold of wingers that Jose has been buying .
