Chelsea join Man Utd in chase for £20M rated Stuttgart striker Gomez

Chelsea are moving for Stuttgart striker Mario Gomez.

The Mail on Sunday says owner Roman Abramovich is likely to have to stump up another big fee to beat off competition from AC Milan, Juventus and Roma for a goalscorer known as ‘Mister Zuverlassig’ (Mr Reliable) and tipped to be a star of Euro 2008 for the Germans.

Chelsea scouts have watched him at least four times and on the last occasion saw him claim a stunning hat-trick in a 6-3 win over Werder Bremen, whose attacking midfielder Diego has been touted as a successor to Frank Lampard.
