CHELSEA are considering making a surprise move for Wesley Sneijder, according to reports.

Jose Mourinho knows Sneijder well from their time spent together at Inter Milan where they won the treble in 2010.
Manchester United have previously expressed an interest in the Galatasaray midfielder in past transfer windows, but they were rebuffed on numerous occasions.
Turkish news outlet Fanatik claim Mourinho wants to work with Sneijder again and has placed him on his shortlist of targets.
The report suggests Chelsea are prepared to trigger Sneijder’s £14million release clause.

Sneijder, who signed a three-year contract extension with Galatasaray last month, underlined his desire to manage Gala after he hangs up his boots.
He said: “If I have a choice I would prefer to become a coach when I retied from football. One day I hope to coach at Galatasaray."
