Chelsea Beat United…..for Jose Bosingwa
Chelsea have started their summer signings before the Champions League final by beating United to the signature of the highly rated Porto right back Jose Bosingwa for £16.2 million.
Right back has proved to be a problematic for Chelsea, despite Paolo Ferriera earning a new 5 year contract. Chelsea have used Michael Essien in this position this season and while rumours of other names such as Phillip Lahm (Bayern Munich), Daniel Alves (Sevilla) and Sergio Ramos (Real Madrid) were also mention, Jose Bosingwa will provide an attacking option from the right.
The same goes to United, who are looking for a replacement for Gary Neville, have shown interest in Micah Richards (Man City) and Daniel Alves (Sevilla), but with Chelsea already beaten them to their target signing, they will act fast to further strengthen their squad for the coming season.
