Bayern Munich midfielder Arturo Vidal has sparked excitement amongst Chelsea fans after dropping a big transfer hint.

The Chilean has fueled speculation he is joining Chelsea by liking a post linking him with the Blues.

The Sun says buoyed by the massive payout after selling Oscar for £60million, Antonio Conte will lodge an initial bid of around £34m for the Bayern Munich star.

But Bayern are likely to reject that and hold out for closer to £40m.

Conte first took Vidal to Juve from Bayer Leverkusen during his three-year reign at the Turin club.

Vidal, 29, won Serie A in each season under Conte and was integral to Juve's success.
