FC Porto striker Hulk could stay put after his club offered him a new offer according to the player’s agent Teodera Fonseca.
Hulk’s impending move to London club Chelsea needs to be wrapped up if they are serious about landing him this summer Fonseca revealed. Roman Abramovich has already spent close £40m on two players; Eden Hazard from Lille and Marko Marin from Werder Bremen and it is still unclear as to what is delaying Chelsea from sealing the deal for the Brazilian. With Didier Drogba’s departure this summer, Chelsea are keen to replace him with Hulk who has been in spectacular goal scoring form for the Portuguese club over the last couple of seasons.
His agent has put the European champions on alert and has urged them to speed through the deal. The Brazilian has a release clause of £80m but it is believed that Porto would be willing to listen to offers over £38m and Chelsea owner is believed to be ready to splurge the cash to bring Hulk to Stamford Bridge.
Fonseca said: “The offer from Chelsea is not the only big one we have in Europe and they know that. At this moment everything depends on Porto.
“I am in constant contact with the Porto president and there are no changes. The club wants him to stay there and they have made him a new offer to stay.
“Hulk is happy at Porto and if he has to stay there it will not be a problem. He has been chased by big clubs in Europe for the last three years and he is still there.”
