Benfica expect to sell Ramires to Chelsea in days

Chelsea are on the brink of a deal for Benfica midfielder Ramires.

Blues sources have told A Bola that management are confident of an agreement within days. Chelsea have tabled a £20 million offer for the Brazil international.

Manchester City have also been linked, but Benfica insiders insist no concrete offer has arrived from Eastlands.

Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti is keen to welcome Ramires after losing Michael Ballack, Joe Cole and potentially Deco this summer.
