Chelsea are monitoring Milos Krasic's current situation at Juventus with a view to launching a move to sign the winger in the summer, according to the player's agent.

The Serbian international came close to completing a temporary switch to fellow Premier League side Tottenham last month before calling of the deal at the last minute.

However, the player's representative Valado Borozan has revealed he could still end up sealing a permanent switch to England, with Andre Villas-Boas' side amongst a group of teams chasing his signature.

"In this moment Milos wants to stay at Juventus,” Borozan told calciomercatio.it.  “There is no need to work on Krasic - we have to wait and see what will happen.

"Milos is appreciated everywhere, so we'll see which side will come forward between now and June. He is under contract and so far there has not been a need to start talking to other clubs.

"Chelsea? They are interested in the player and they are one of the clubs he likes."

Krasic, 27, joined the Serie A giants in the summer of 2010 in a big money move from CSKA Moscow, but has fallen out of favour during the current campaign.

It's now 5-0 to Netherlands. Klaas-Jan Huntelaar has just come on for Arsenal striker Robin van Persie, who scored two goals. A bit of debate on who will start between those two at the Euros, it's an interesting one.
20:14 BST
The general consensus, then, is that Danny Welbeck should be starting up front against France with Ashley Young supporting him. How about Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain? Did he do enough to earn a starting role at Euro 2012?
20:06 BST
So, that game gave a few players a chance to impress for England. Who did/didn't? Will Welbeck start against France? Or Carroll? Or Defoe?!

19:59 BST
Unfortunately for Northern Ireland, they are trailing the Netherlands 4-0 at half-time. Looks like that one's all sewn up then.
19:54 BST
We're still getting plenty of Hazard chat on Twitter. A few are now saying that he's not worth the hype, others saying he was brilliant(!?) and others (which I agree with), saying he created much of his own hype. What do you think? Get involved!
