SPORTS:Chelsea close on Cuadrado, Liverpool eye Konoplyanka



Sky Sports reports that Fiorentina are in talks with Chelsea, but the English club must reach the $51m buyout clause before the Serie A club even countenances the idea.
Vincenzo Montella, Fiorentina’s coach, said: “In his contract there is an escape clause and if another team pays this amount he can leave Fiorentina — and if he agrees (to leave). But I think he will stay at Fiorentina.
“The clause says £35 million and only in this situation is it possible to buy. But I have not spoken to him about it.”
Manchester United had been strongly linked to the Colombian in the summer window, but The Daily Mail reports that recent suggestions they may try to scupper Chelsea’s bid by offering Adnan Januzaj as bait is off the mark.
Andre Schurrle, who plays a similar role to Cuadrado, appears on the way out at Chelsea but Wolfsburg chief executive Klaus Allofs told Kicker no deal has been done yet to sign the German World Cup star.
Finally at Stamford Bridge, The Daily Mail suggests 18-year-old Real Betis winger Dani Ceballos is in their range as well.
