Agent of Rolando claims interest from Chelsea's Villas-Boas

New Chelsea boss Andre Villas-Boas is expected to return to former club FC Porto to bring some players to Stamford Bridge.

The 33-year old manager has already made it clear he wants to bring some Dragons stars to Southwest London and now agent Peppino Tirri, who represents defender Rolando, believes he will look at some of his other Europa League-winning squad for reinforcements.

"It's true that Villas-Boas could ask for some of his former players to join him at his new team [Chelsea]," Tirri told Calciomercatoweb.it.

Rolando has already been linked with AS Roma but Tirri insists it is merely speculation.

"Nobody has called me and so there is nothing. Maybe the clubs are talking. Roma have not even called me," he added.
