Despite running away with the Premier League this year and last year, Chelsea have faultered in the Champions League, even with the benefit of not-so-squeeky-clean Russian Billionaire Roman Abramovich pouring money into the team (440 million pounds -- $765.3 million -- in total since he bought the club in 2003, half of that going to buy new players). more ›

Du, 6-foot-3 and 23 years old, reportedly comes with an £800,000-£1 million price tag. He would be the second major Asian acquisition for the Glasgow-based Hoops this summer. Last week, Celtic purchased Japanese midfielder Shunsuke Nakamura for £3 million. Du's departure would leave a gaping hole at backfield for Shenhua, currently in third place in the China Super League, 10 points behind league-leader Dalian Shide, with three months left in the season. more ›
