Chelsea are moving for Hamburg midfielder Rafael van der Vaart.
The Mirror says sacked Chelsea boss Avram Grant is believed to have had Van der Vaart on his radar before being sacked at Stamford Bridge last weekend.

Now the Blues will press ahead with signing the players the Israeli had earmarked for this summer.

The £15million-rated HSV skipper has so far refused all offers to sign an extension to his current deal, which runs out in 2010.
