New Chelsea boss Mourinho eyeing 40 mln pound move for Suarez

Although the report said that Liverpool would be determined not to sell another striker to Chelsea after Fernando Torres made the switch for 50 million pounds two and a half years ago, it, however added that Chelsea is a club which could be willing to go above 40 million pounds for their top transfer target.

The report also said that Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich has the financial clout to back Mourinho in his quest for a top class striker, adding that the club is now looking for Suarez after moves for Hulk, Radamel Falcao and Edinson Cavani failed.
