Chelsea are keen on improving their goalkeeping department with the signing of the Porto goalkeeper Diogo Costa.
The 24-year-old Portuguese international has done quite well for the Portuguese club and his performances have attracted the attention of Manchester City as well. According to journalist Rudy Galetti, the player has already been approached by Chelsea and it remains to be seen whether the Blues follow up with an official offer to sign him.
The 24-year-old could prove to be a quality acquisition for Chelsea, and he could be an upgrade on Robert Sanchez. The Spanish goalkeeper joined Chelsea at the start of the season, but his performances have been rather underwhelming.
Chelsea are looking to replace him during the summer transfer window and Costa has been identified as a potential target. The opportunity to move to the Premier League will be quite attractive for the Portuguese goalkeeper and he is likely to be tempted to join Chelsea.
