The Metro are reporting that the west London outfit are lining up a £50m double swoop for Marseille’s Giannelli Imbula and Porto’s Eliaquim Mangala. But who are they, and what do they do?
The former is a midfielder who has played eight games this season in Ligue 1, scoring once. He has completed an impressive 89% of his passes, three of which have been key passes, and he has won 66% of his duels.
The 21-year-old France U21is a box-to-box player who is equally happy sitting back or driving forward and would be an ideal partner for Ramires.
Mangala, who the Blues should know all about, is a powerhouse defender who dominates in all areas of the field. He’s also surprisingly good with the ball at his feet – in his two games in the Champions League this season he has completed 92% of his passes.
