@SkySportsNews: Chelsea are closing in on the biggest deal of the summer so far. We'll tell you who, and for how much, from 6am.

Any news about this? They didn't say what day, but I assumed it was today.

Thought I'd just chuck it in here... Does anyone think Osar will be our last addition or do you think we'll get more? If so how many/who?

Think it would depend on how many leave. You could pick Ferreira, Meireles, Essien, Malouda to go but it all depends on whether the club want them gone i suppose.

Still think we will go for a RB

I think if the price is right we will go for Hulk near the end of the window, if it doesn't happen Moses. Yeah I reckon we will go for a right back too. Back up GK is something we really need.

I think we will get Oscar and probably Azpilicueta (hope I got his name right). I also think we're keeping our eyes open for someone stronger to sign - like Cavani or Hulk.

I haven't been linked yet...but I'm sure Chelsea have a need for the former worst player in the worst team in the worst division in the under 12's at my local Australian football club.

Fingers crossed. I'd even play for 10,000 a week.

3 more. Hulk, Oscar and Azpilicueta. Although signing a back up keeper and a cheapish striker wouldn't surprise me.

10? You need an agent mate, I will help you for 40%.

I'm reasonably certain I'd be a better signing than Mineiro and at least twice as popular with the ladies.

M'Villa available for less than £15m.

Should be getting in there.

That sounds very cheap. Would be a great buy.

Fergie pretty much came out band said they are going for Lucas. That'll be that then.

I can't see Lucas going, mainly because utd won't pay the 30 something million required. AF said hazard was overpriced.

I'm keeping my eye on santi cazorla to arsenal. 20m euros seems crazy cheap. Plays both wings too.

Ribeiro, one of the leading agents in South America, does not think Moura will be moving anywhere this summer after United's bid was rejected.

"They have reached their limit," Ribeiro told UOL.

"Lucas Moura won't leave. He is happy at Sao Paulo. we have to forget this subject. There is no possibility he leaves now.

"Manchester United made an offer, which was rejected and they won't make another one as they reached their limit."

Ferguson moved to dampen reports on Monday that a £26million fee had been struck for the 19-year-old, saying: "It's not correct. We haven't reached an agreement for the player.

"We have shown an interest, but until such time a we get a deal agreed, we can't say he's our player."

Lets do business Mr Moura..

Carzola an excellent player underrated by many.

I don't think anyone's mentioned it, but Marchisio from Juventus? He is a typical box to box midfielder, I believe. I don't really see him leaving Juve in the near future, but just food for thought. He may be an upgrade on Meireles too if he leaves, and we don't know how Essien will fare with this season yet.

Great player but like you said, he's not going to leave unless we offer Juve a stupid amount of cash. Inter are poor, Milan have declined and it will take a while for them to regroup, only team that can really challenge Juventus now is Roma. So yeah, I can see them winning the league for the next two years and Marchisio playing a big part in it.

Remodez beat me to it, I cant see us being able to get him from Juve at the moment, though it would be a very good signing if we could.

oberto has seemingly came out and told Chelsea Fan's to expect 2 more signings this summer.

The thoughts are it will be a RW and a RB.

RW either Moses, Schurrle, Hulk, Willian

RB Azpilicueta or Debuchy

Or Maicon.
