Hulk issues come and get me plea to Chelsea

 
21 June 2012

Porto striker Hulk has set his sights on a move to Chelsea.

The 25-year-old has long been linked with a switch to Stamford Bridge but has also attracted interest from big-spending French side Paris Saint-Germain.

However, Roberto di Matteo's side appear to be the front-runners after Hulk stated his preference for a move to the Premier League.

"Chelsea are the current European champions and would please any player and I'm no exception. I'd be happy if the transfer happened", he told O Jogo, a Portuguese newspaper.

"I leave everything in the hands of Porto. I am under contract and I have been happy at Porto for four years, where I have achieved everything. I'll have the club in my heart no matter what happens this summer or in any other summer.

Hulk has been prolific in Portugal, netting 57 goals in 91 appearances over the last two seasons. Chelsea have already secured the signings of Marko Marin and Eden Hazard as they attempt to push on following their Champions League triumph.
