Champions want ex-Arsenal midfielder at Stamford Bridge
Chelsea are planning to steal Alex Song away from West Ham and bring him to Stamford Bridge this summer.
West Ham have been trying to secure a free transfer after his loan spell from Barcelona last season. However, if Chelsea come in with a £5million bid Barcelona are ready to accept the cash.
Reports suggest West Ham have offered the 27-year-old a three-year contract worth £70,000-a-week – and are trying to convince Barca to let him go for free.
A Solid Season In England
Song spent seven seasons in the Premier League with Arsenal before leaving for the Nou Camp in a £15m deal in 2012.
The cousin of Cameroon legend Rigobert Song made 31 appearances for the Hammers last season.
