Third-party ownership complicates Hulk deal

Chelsea are yet to drop their interest in the hunt for FC Porto striker Hulk, but any deal is complicated due to his third-party ownership.

The Blues have been heavily linked with a move for the 25-year-old as they look to replace striker Didier Drogba.

However, any move has now hit the rocks, with Chelsea unwilling to pay a fee to the Brazilian’s third-party owner.
