Fiorentina expect Chelsea to up bid for Stevan Jovetic

Fiorentina expect Chelsea to make a new move for star striker Stevan Jovetic.

The Daily Mail says Fiorentina are expecting a £21million bid from Chelsea for star forward Jovetic after admitting they could not resist an indecent proposal for the Montenegrin.

Insiders at the Italian club claim they rejected a lower bid of about £14m this winter and would still demand more for a player who recently signed a new five-year-contract in Florence.

Fiorentina seem convinced that Chelsea will not give up the chase and team manager Vincenzo Guerini admitted the Serie A club could not rule out a summer move.

"Our intention is to build the team around him, but today the word untransferable doesn't exist," he said.
