Reports emanating from Italy suggest that new Chelsea manager Andre Villas-Boas is eyeing a reunion with Inter Milan's Lucio.
The Brazilian centre-half worked with the Portuguese tactician when he was assistant to Jose Mourinho at the San Siro and it is believed that Villas-Boas is keen to bring him to Stamford Bridge.
Lucio's future with Inter is clouded as he is still waiting for a new contract as his current deal has just 12 months left.
Former club Bayern Munich and French outfit AS Monaco are also believed to be showing interest.
