Chelsea plot double Roma raid

Chelsea will start of their spending spree with a double swoop from AS Roma. Belgian midfielder Radja Nainggolan and Greek defender Kostas Manolas have been identified as the prime targets.

The Blues are expected to ring in the changes in the summer following a dismal season in the Premier League that is likely to see them miss out on the Champions League qualification places.

According to The Mirror, Incoming boss Antonio Conte will start off his summer rebuild with moves for Nainggolan and Manolas.

League rivals Manchester United have also been credited with interest for the former of the two players.

The Blues, who are currently under the management of Guus Hiddink, are placed tenth in the league with 41 points.
