London, Aug. 15 : Chelsea is ready to make a 42-million pound bid for Atletico Madrid superstar Sergio Aguero.

According to The Sun, the club’s Russian billionaire owner Roman Abramovich wants to give coach Carlo Ancelotti a big-name signing.

According to the report, Atletico is likely to turn down the offer and tell Chelsea they must match the 50 million pound get out clause for 21-year-old Aguero.

Chelsea''s offer would eclipse Manchester City''s 32.5 million pound signing of Robinho as the British record. (ANI)
