Blues looking to capture Donetsk defender

Chelsea are chasing the signature of Shakhtar Donetsk right-back Darijo Srna, according to his agent. Croatia captain Srna, who is reaching the end of his contract with the Ukrainian club, has impressed in the UEFA Champions League this season, where Donetsk sit second in qualifying Group H behind Arsenal. The 28-year-old's exploits have reportedly attracted the attention of Blues boss Carlo Ancelotti, and agent Damir Stimac says a January loan move to Stamford Bridge, followed by a permanent move later this year, is on the cards. "There's a chance of a loan in January before moving in the summer," Stimac said in the Daily Star. "We'll see then."
