Branislav Ivanovic
Lokomotiv Moscow look set to cash in on Serbian defender Branislav Ivanovic by selling him to Chelsea. The 23-year-old international player is set to move for a fee of $US 20 million to the English Premier League within the next few days.
Ivanovic moves to Chelsea despite competition for his signature from a host of leading clubs including Manchester United and Juventus.
It's thought the Roman Abramovich connection could have helped turn the deal Chelsea's way.
