Chelsea ready CR7 bid

Cape Town - Jose Mourinho is hoping his relationship with Cristiano Ronaldo will tilt the scales in Chelsea's favour as the club line up a bid for the Ballon d'Or winner.

The Express report that Chelsea are readying a bid to bring Cristiano Ronaldo back to England next season.

Reports in Spain suggest Cristiano Ronaldo is unhappy with life at Real Madrid and will look to push for a move next summer.

While Manchester United remain favourites should Real Madrid agree to let their superstar go, Chelsea have now emerged as a potential destination for the Portugal forward.

Jose Mourinho has reportedly declared that Chelsea are interested in Ronaldo. The pair developed a strong bond during Mourinho's time as coach of Real Madrid.

Despite being 29-years-old, Ronaldo will potentially cost any interested club around £60 million.
