09 September 2011 - 04:19

Chelsea have admitted they tried to bring Uruguayan defender Alvaro Pereira to Stamford Bridge in the summer transfer window, but failed to agree a fee with Porto for the transfer.

Arsenal handed double injury boost before Liverpool clash

Porto expect to sign Arsenal star in next 72 hours

The Uruguayan had been one of Andre Villas-Boas' most consistent performers whilst in charge at Porto, and the coach hoped to bring Pereira to Chelsea during the summer.



However, Chelsea were unable to agree a fee for the player, as admitted by Villas-Boas himself: "For Alvaro Pereira, Porto’s asking price was too much."
