Cordoba are continuing marathon talks with Chelsea over Ulises Davila.
The Mexican attacker is wanted by Cordoba on-loan for the new season and AS says negotiations are about to enter a fourth week.
Cordoba would prefer to sign Davila permanently and have pushed him to terminate his Chelsea deal.
However, the young forward has no plans to rip up his current contract, which has two years to run and is worth a cool €1 million-a-season.
