Chelsea, Man Utd target Anderson ducks Benfica exit talk

Anderson Talisca is ducking talk of a move away from Benfica in January.

The newly capped Brazil international is being watched by Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United ahead of the January.

But Anderson insisted yesterday: "I am comfortable at Benfica and I'm grateful for the opportunity they've given me.

"I think treading the same path as David Luiz and Ramires is the best way forward."

Just this week, one of Anderson's Brazil teammates, Chelsea midfielder Oscar, likened the Benfica ace to Selecao legend Rivaldo.
