It is being reported that Chelsea have made a bid for Porto striker Jackson Martinez of £34.8m which apparently would trigger his buy out clause, but who is he?
With so many players touted as on their way to Chelsea it is difficult to keep track and nigh on impossible to fully research every name particularly if you do not watch football outside of the Premier League on a regular basis.
Therefore in a research exercise for us we have done some digging and even found the customary YouTube video that would make Robert Fleck look like a striking dynamo.

Quote:
He’s quick, sleek and uncomplicated. A thoroughly proficient finisher. I am doubtful about his touch and overall approach to playing football. He doesn’t offer much else, so if he gets a move and he’s not scoring early then his confidence could slump.
