Chelsea appear to have grown tired beating around the bush in the transfer market and they have now decided to set their sights on Atletico Madrid starlet Sergio Aguero.

After reportedly having a €43 million offer for David Villa turned down by Valencia and most recently being linked with a wild goose chase for Milan’s Alexandre Pato, the Blues are now ready to make their first big signing under new manager Carlo Ancelotti.

According to The Times and ElMundo.es, Chelsea made an official €51 million (£45m) bid for Aguero last night. The actual transfer fee, however, is expected to be much lower as the current offer includes incentives and bonuses based on Aguero’s appearances and success at Stamford Bridge. The €51m mark, however, falls well short of the player’s near €60 million buy-out clause at Atleti.

The 21-year-old is also being tracked by some of Europe’s other superpowers, including Inter and Barcelona. Los Colchoneros have yet to respond to Chelsea’s bid.
