Chelsea have today been linked with a January move for CSKA Moscow striker Vagner Love. The Brazilian international has been linked with a move to the Premier League on several occasions in the past, however for whatever reasons he remains a CSKA player. That may be about to change though.
Chelsea boss Luis Filipe Scolari is desperate to bring a new front man to Stamford Bridge during the upcoming transfer window and Love is seen a possible acquisition. The 24-year old was the top scorer in the Russian Premier League last season and has earned a reputation as one of the best players currently playing in the league.
It has been speculated that Love may move to London on an initial six-month loan deal before possibly making the move permanent in the summer. Personally I think Love would be a great signing for Chelsea. Nicolas Anelka has been in terrific form for the Blues this season and I feel if they could bring another top striker to the club in January, they could easily to go on to win several trophies.
