Chelsea boss Andre Villas-Boas is eyeing Udinese defender Mehdi Benatia. The Morocco international has already declared this will be his final season in Udine.

A centre-half, who can also play in midfield, Benatia is under consideration by AVB as he seeks to add more defensive security to his line-up.

Benatia has admitted he welcomes the interest of rivals Manchester United and PSG in recent days.
