Is this the Brazilian Hulk Chelsea want?

Roberto Di Matteo is fancying the Brazilians. But not the one his fans want.

With news that Hulk may be stolen by old Chelsea boss Andre Villas-Boas for Spurs, Di Matteo turned his sights on 23-year old Willian, playing for Shakhtar Donetsk.

The Brazilian does seem to be in the Hulk-Drogba mould in terms of size and speed, but according to the British press, the Blues will need to pay £21 million for the striker.

Willian, full name Willian Borges da Silva, has made 126 appearances for Shakhtar, averaging a goal every seven games.

After getting Brazilian Oscar, and going for Napoli striker Edinson Cavani, with Willian Chelsea will boast an all-out South American attack.

Willian is ofcourse more attacking midfielder than outright striker, but he will be one Hulk of a player to deal with in midfield.

But then again, not that Hulk.
