Chelsea Transfers: 5 Midfield Replacements For Juan Mata
could leave for Barcelona this summer after falling out with new manager Jose Mourinho. The reports will shock many, especially given that the Spanish midfielder was the club's Player of the Season last season and was also nominated for the PFA Player of the Year award. He has also been a big hit with fans since moving to West London from Valencia two years ago. But apparently, the player has had a row with the "Special One" after being refused the increase in wages promised to him by the stipulations in the contract he signed back in 2011. Mourinho is also said to be "unconvinced" by the midfielder, who may not factor into his plans next season. The former Real Madrid boss is certainly not afraid to axe even the most popular and talented of his players. Just ask Mata's compatriot Iker Casillas. Last season he was frozen out of the Madrid squad and dumped to the bench for the second half of the season after having a row with Mourinho. And if the same fate befalls Mata, the door could open for Barcelona to make a £30 million bid, according to reports. If Mata does end up at the Nou Camp, we have rounded up 5 players who could replace him at Stamford Bridge. Click "Next" to begin...
