Chelsea want FOUR Atletico Madrid stars in £75M swoop

Chelsea are being linked with an amazing QUADRUPLE raid on Spanish champs Atletico Madrid. The Daily Star says Chelsea are set to splash out £75m in their pursuit of Atletico Madrid quartet Diego Costa, Filipe Luis, Diego Godin and Tiago.

The Blues have already agreed a £35m fee with Atletico for Costa, but are yet to strike deals for Luis or Godin.

Former Chelsea midfielder Tiago, 33, is expected to rejoin the Blues - the club he left in 2005 after just one season - on a free transfer following the expiry of his contract at Atletico.

And according to reports in Spain, Chelsea will also meet the release clauses of Luis, 28, and Godin, 28, as manager Jose Mourinho begins to shape his squad for next season.
