English club Chelsea, along with their London rivals Arsenal will have to face-off against Italian giants AC Milan for the signature of Benfica’s highly sought-after striker Oscar Cardozo after reports emerging from Portugal claim that Milan are eyeing the hitman.
After the sale of Zlatan Ibrahimovic to French free-spending outfit Paris Saint-Germain, AC Milan are in the market for a prolific goal-scorer who can fill the void left by the Swede. They have put down a few names, and Cardozo’s name is included in their shortlist.
European champions Chelsea too have been eyeing the 29-year old as their hunt for a top-class striker continues after the Hulk deal has supposedly fallen apart. Arsenal too have been credited with an interest in the attacker as they prepare themselves for a likely departure of their captain Robin van Persie.
It seems like the English duo will have to fend off this new interest from the Serie A outfit, as Portugese newspaper Record claim that Milan are keen on Cardozo’s signature, for a fee of £16.5 million being deemed sufficient.

If Chelsea football Club thinks that it is fine and right to sign him, let them go ahead and sign him but, we still need Hulk, Cesar or Cavani. Up blues, the pride of London.
