Jose Maria Mesalles has confirmed Chelsea Football Club want to sign Samuel Eto’o.
The Blues have been joined by Manchester United as keen admirers of the Cameroon international, yet his agent believes the striker will remain in Spain with Barcelona.
"Chelsea and Manchester have been interested in Eto`o for many months," Mesalles said. "I am sure he will stay in Spain, but he would be a success
in any league and England is one of the most attractive."
It has been reported that Eto’o is after a new contract at the Nou Camp, and coach Frank Rijkaard admits he would be reluctant to keep an unhappy player at the club.
"I`m not quite sure what Samuel is asking for," Rijkaard said. "I like for players at Barcelona to feel happy. If a player is not happy and another club will pay him more then it`s better that he goes."
