Jose Mourinho is ready to make a swoop for France winger Paul Pogba.
Pogba, who has two years remaining on his deal at Juventus, is priced at around £60 million by the Turin club, with Manchester United also keen.
And according to Goal.com, Pogba is set to be offered a huge contract which would make him the top earner at the West London club.
Chelsea are more than willing to offer Pogba a large amount, due to the fact that top earners Ashley Cole, Frank Lampard and David Luiz have all left the club, with the Luiz money likely to fund the deal.
The news will come as a killer blow to Arsenal, with Arsene Wenger previously talking to the players agent whilst working as a pundit for French TV at the World Cup finals in Brazil.
Pogba joined Juventus in the summer of 2012, on a free transfer from Manchester United.
