Oriol Romeu has admitted that he would like to see Barcelona forward David Villa move to Chelsea in the January transfer window.
Villa has fallen out of favour at the Catalan club since his return to the squad following a knee injury.
However, Romeu admits that the Spaniard would be welcome at Stamford Bridge due to his record at international level.
"I don't know what Villa's situation is, but if a great player like him comes, the record goalscorer with the national team, he would be welcomed and we would be happy," Romeu said to Spanish radio show Esports Cope.
Chelsea recently confirmed that Romeu would be out for six months with a knee injury.
