Roma defender Kostas Manolas hoping Chelsea up contract offer

AS Roma defender Kostas Manolas has left the door open to a move to Chelsea.

The Greece international knows the Blues are willing to pay his buyout clause and take him to London this summer.

While Roma chief Monchi has declared he's confident of Manolas staying, Sportitalia says the stopper is not ruling anything out.

For the moment, he is considering his options - but if Chelsea up their contract offer, Manolas is expected to accept a move away.

His buyout clause is set at €38m.
