Madrid's "Real" and "Chelsea" fight for "Cruzeiro" goalkeeper L.Silva's signature

"It is reported in the press of England and Spain that Madrid's "Real" and London's "Chelsea" are eyeing up Lucas Silva, a defensive midfielder from the "Cruzeiro" team.

According to reports, so far the leaders in the race for the 21-year-old Brazilian are the winners of the UEFA Champions League, who will try to acquire the midfielder already in January.

However, the "Chelsea" club has been interested in L. Silva's services since last summer. It is believed that the "Blues" would seek to acquire L. Silva in case they fail to attract Sami Khedira from "Real".

The Brazilian U-20 national team midfielder has been playing for the "Cruzeiro" team since 2012. L. Silva has scored three goals in 65 matches played."
