Chelsea drop talks over Sporting Braga striker Orlando Sa

Chelsea have pulled back on moving for Sporting Braga striker Orlando Sa.

The Observer says Blues boss Luiz Felipe Scolari was impressed with the Braga player's performances during a week-long trial with the first-team squad, but will focus his efforts elsewhere.

Sá is disappointed that Braga upped the asking price from €1.5m (£1.35m) to €7m during the course of his trip. The 20-year-old is now seeking a loan move to second-division leaders Olhanense.
