Moneybags Chelsea and Man City are being reported by the Daily Mail to be set to do battle over Benfica's Portugal striker, Nelson Oliveira. The boy's 20, is currently on loan at Deportivo La Coruna, was voted the second-best player at the Under 20 World Cup in 2011 and was part of Portugal's Euro 2012 squad (we hear that even he was set to take a penalty before Cristiano Ronaldo against Spain in the semi final shoot out....and he didn't even get on the pitch!).

With a buy-out clause of £24 million, Oliveira won't come cheap. You'd think both City and Chelsea had no strikers to speak of...oh yeah that's right, only the likes of Mario Balotelli, Sergio Aguero, Carlos Tevez, Edin Dzeko, Fernando Torres, Daniel Sturridge....
