Atletico Madrid defender Diego Godin open the doors to a potential move to Stamford Bridge. The Uruguayan international has been a rock at the back for Atletico this season and has confirmed Chelsea made a move for him in January, saying:
“The club didn’t want to sell. Who wouldn’t want to play for Chelsea? It would mean going up a step.”
The 25-year old centre back is rated at around £12million and could follow team mate Sergio Aguero to Stamford Bridge with Chelsea also considering a move for the Argentinean star.
Aguero has already stated his intention to leave the Madrid club, but the Spanish outfit will want at least £40million for the striker who has scored over 70 goals since his arrival back in 2006 from South American giants Independiente. The Sun reports that Atletico turned down a £54million approach for both Aguero and Godin back in January.
