Diego: Chelsea target

After being strongly linked with a summer move to Chelsea or Real Madrid, Werder Bremen playmaker Diego has admitted he has received offers.

The Brazil international's arrival in London for the friendly against Sweden on Wednesday has sparked fresh speculation that Chelsea will take a close look at his talents.

With his father commenting that Diego wants to play in Madrid, the player has insisted recently that he remains committed to Bremen, where he is under contract until 2011.

However, the classy South American has revealed that he will not be short of offers if he decides to push for a move during the close season.

"With respect to Werder Bremen, my club, I prefer not talking about names," he said.

"But several proposals have emerged."

Diego is expected to line up for Brazil in the Emirates friendly, possibly alongside Manchester United's Anderson.

Setanta readers' comment of the day

“United deserved the title. why can't everyone see that? Why are there all the recriminations from TV and people on here? It was a clear penalty and the rio incident one wasn't. Yes, scholes could've been sent off but how many times do you see the ref show leniency in such situations? Chelsea couldn't even win anyway so any argument is completely moot.”
