Chelsea eye move for Kuzmanovic

Chelsea have made an initial enquiry regarding the availability of VfB Stuttgart and Serbia creative midfielder Zdravko Kuzmanovic. The talented playmaker is considered a long term replacement for Frank Lampard. 

The 24-year-old midfielder has been with the German club since 2009, when he agreed a big money move away from Italian side Fiorentina.


This season, Kuzmanovic has enjoyed impressive form for Stuttgart and European clubs have been watching the 6 foot 1 central midfielder in action. Kuzmanovic is known for his creative style of play, being an expert at set pieces and his passing is considered amongst the best in the Bundesliga.


Kuzmanovic will not come cheap, though, as the German side have already rejected offers of 12m GBP for the Serbian last summer.
