Chelsea reopen Hulk talks

Chelsea have reportedly reignited their interest in Porto's Brazilian striker Hulk.

According to the Daily Mail, the Blues have held talks with Porto representatives in order to thrash out a deal for the 25-year-old.

The Brazil international, who has bagged nine goals in 18 games so far this season, has an £85m release clause written into his contract.

However, the two clubs are now said to be working on a compromise after Chelsea refused to part with that amount of cash.

Hulk, who has nine caps for his country, moved to Porto from Japanese side Tokyo Verde in 2008.
