Chelsea midfielder set for shock China switch

Ramires heading far east
Chelsea midfielder Ramires could be set for a shock £25million transfer to Chinese Super League side Jiangsu Suning - teaming up with former Blues ace Dan Petrescu.

Ramires only signed a new four-year deal at Stamford Bridge in October, but has fallen down the pecking order under Guus Hiddink and hasn’t started a Premier League game since the Dutchman’s arrival.


Now the Daily Mail report that the 28-year-old - who arrived for £18million from Benfica in 2010 - could now head to the Far East.


Money is being pumped into the Chinese Super League and Jiangsu are hoping to make a title bid this year. They’re already set to sign former Arsenal winger Gervinho from Roma and hope to resurrect a deal for AC Milan striker Luiz Adriano.

Petrescu, hired in July, has already led the side to the 2015 Chinese FA Cup. The club are owned by the Guoxin Group, China’s largest project tendering and procurement company.
