Sensational news are out and it has been revealed that Premier League giants Chelsea made a cash offer for Barcelona striker David Villa.
El Mundo Deportivo has reported that a call from Chelsea was fielded at Barca HQ last week with a Blues powerbroker making a €30 million offer for the World Cup winner.
However it was said that the bid was turned down flat by the Spanish champions, with Chelsea being referred to Villa’s €200 million buyout clause.
Chelsea believed Villa was available with Barca struggling to find the cash needed to land Udinese winger Alexis Sanchez.
