BIG BREAKING NEWS Chelsea launch late £11m bid to gazump Liverpool in race to sign Basle ace Salah Chelsea have launched a late bid to rival Liverpool for FC Basle forward Mohamed Salah. Sportsmail revealed Liverpools interest in the Egypt international and talks were reaching an advanced stage until last night when Chelsea made a rival bid of £11million. With Juan Mata sealing his exit to Manchester United, Chelsea have looked to replace the Spaniard with Salah who impressed against them in the Champions League this season scoring in both of their group stage games, including the winner in Switzerland. Basle though, sensing an auction, have asked for £16m for the 21-year-old and will now await improved offers. Salahs preference is understood to be Liverpool as he believes he will get more game time but Chelseas financial muscle could yet persuade him and his club. Liverpool are reluctant to go beyond £12m and talks were ongoing last night for a player who has scored 17 goals in 27 games for Egypt.
