It looks like Oscar is leaving the Chelsea bench to go to China for somewhere between £50-60m on wages of around £350k a week. It also appears that his new club,Shanghai SIPG, aren't that arsed about signing him, but have been instructed to by the local government. With such a big lump of Chinese cash, Chelsea are inevitably being linked with pretty much every midfielder who might or might not be available next month to fill Oscar's place in the dug out, possibly Marco Verratti.
Man City are being linked with a move for Virgil van Dyke but even they might baulk at the £50m being quoted by Southampton. They do need a central defender though, especially if Pep is going to continue with three at the back. It just doesn't work with fullbacks.
