Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti will make a final bid for Bayern Munich winger Franck Ribery.
The Daily Mail says Bayern continue to maintain that Ribery, who is valued at more than £45m, will remain in Germany but new Chelsea coach Ancelotti is refusing to concede defeat.
Despite competition from Manchester United, Manchester City and big-spending Real Madrid, Ancelotti will test Bayern Munich's resolve with an improved offer for the midfielder.
