| Edinson Cavani is now on Chelsea's radar ahead of January |
NEWS NEWS BLOG SPORT brings you the latest news from Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea are upping the ante in the Edinson Cavani stakes.
The Uruguay striker, who has been monitored by Arsenal and Manchester United, is now wanted by Chelsea.
Cavani had admitted he has reservations over returning to Paris after last week's terror attacks.
And Chelsea are considering a January move for the 28-year-old to bolster their forward line.
Pressure is growing on Jose Mourinho at the Bridge with Diego Costa's form in question.
The Spain international has only scored once this season after making a blistering start to his Chelsea career.
And Cavani could be the man to replace him.
However Mourinho could be heading in the other direction.
David Ginola has backed Mourinho and Cristiano Ronaldo to be re-united in the summer - but at PSG.
The former France star - who also played for Tottenham and Newcastle - thinks the Portuguese could replace Laurent Blanc.
"I see Ronaldo being in Paris next year," Ginola told BT Sport.
"Because they have the money and in terms of the challenge to win the Champions League.
"I know the Qatari investors would like to have Ronaldo at the club, no matter how much it will cost, they will pay for it.
"I can also see Mourinho as the next manager of the team.
"So I think there’s going to be a lot of Portuguese in Paris."
Chelsea's move to buy Kingsmeadow has been approved by AFC Wimbledon fans.
The Dons Trust held a meeting last night to give fans the chance to vote.
A total of 1,918 votes were cast in favour of the proposal, which represented a 98 per cent positive response from the impressive 87 per cent turnout of the Trust’s 2,252 members.
Dons Trust chair Matthew Breach said: “The successful vote on the stadium sale is an important milestone in helping to return AFC Wimbledon to its spiritual home in Merton.

“On behalf of the Dons Trust board, I would like to thank our members for voting in such large numbers and for backing our proposals so unambiguously.
“There is still a lot of work to do to deliver a new stadium but the outcome of the vote shows the overwhelming support among Trust members and the club’s fans for having AFC Wimbledon play where it belongs, back in Merton.”
The vote now moves to the Wimbledon shareholders in December's AGM.
Chelsea are planning to use the ground in Kingston for their ladies and youth sides and will initially pay £600,000 according to Get West London.
