Brazilian Mai make Chelsea move

Chelsea are ready to move for Inter Milan right-back Maicon as they look to bolster their back-line this summer.
The Brazilian international looks set to leave the San Siro during the transfer window, with his agent recently claiming there are offers available to the player.
Chelsea are ready to move on the former Monaco ace following the release of registered right-backs Jose Bosingwa and Paulo Ferreira.
Maicon, 30, made 23 appearances for the Nerazzuri last season as they struggled for consistency, ending sixth in Serie A.
However, the Blues will have to move quickly if they are to snare their man, with Real Madrid believed to be showing an interest in the former Monaco star.
Chelsea have also been linked with moves for Lille’s Mathieu Debuchy and Gregory van der Wiel of Ajax.

Maicon will be a very stupid transfer for Chelsea. The guy is 30years old.
Maicon?? Ah no, too old and he should stay in Serie A because thats where all old players go to end their careers. A boring League that is more suited to corruption than fair play!
ferriera wasn't released, he's got a year left on his current contract and is back up to Ivanovic. FAIL.
