Chelsea up Moses bid

Chelsea are set to make one final offer of £7.5million for Wigan forward Victor Moses but it still may not be enough to do a deal.

The European Champions have failed with at least three bids this summer and if reports of the latest offer are correct then it could also be thrown out by Latics.

Wigan chairman Dave Whelan is holding out for £10million but all of the clubs showing an interest, which includes Liverpool and Queens Park Rangers, are not willing to go that high.

The latest offer will also include add ons to take it closer to Wigan's valuation and could really test the resolve of Whelan. Moses has 12 months remaining on his contract but while he is under the age of 24 Wigan will be entitled to compensation next year, although it is unlikely to be anywhere near £7.5million.

Moses and his agent are also pushing for the move to Stamford Bridge and will be hoping that Whelan will reach a compromise with Chelsea officials over the fee.

  1. Though I am a chelsea fan, but I think chelsea is not acting well here. They should decide to buy this guy and go all out for it or forget it. I saw the tempo with which they pursued Hazard and Oscar. If they really want this guy, they should apply same tempo
