Sporting CP Look To Sign Chelsea Defender Michael Mancienne


Sporting CP are one of a clutch of foreign teams eager to snap up Chelsea defender Michael Mancienne, according to The Mirror.

Mancienne, 22, is believed to have handed in a transfer request after spending the last two seasons on loan at Wolverhampton Wanderers. Manager Mick McCarthy was reported to be keen to make the deal permanent for £4 million, but will now face competition from Malaga, Sevilla and Sporting to secure the player.

It is not yet known if Chelsea will sanction his sale as Ricardo Carvalho has stated his desire to move to Real Madrid. If a replacement cannot be found, Mancienne could be forced to stay at Stamford Bridge next season.
