05/14/2010 - London, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Carlo Ancelotti has hinted that Chelsea would be interested in signing Liverpool striker Fernando Torres this summer.
Blues striker Didier Drogba backed any potential move for the $60 million- rated Spain international earlier in the week and now Ancelotti has admitted his interest in the former Atletico Madrid man.
Torres has scored 72 goals during three seasons in the Premier League but reports claim he could be sold this summer amid growing financial problems at Anfield.
"It's not only Drogba," said Ancelotti. "I would like to play with Torres. He's a very good player.
"But this is not an issue for now. He is a Liverpool player and is a good striker but we have two fantastic strikers and this is not for this moment."
Earlier in the week, Drogba gave his blessing for a potential summer swoop for Torres.
He said: "I have heard the talk about Torres maybe coming in and I would welcome it, of course," said the Ivory Coast striker.
"Every time there is a new player coming here it's making the club bigger and giving us a lot of strength."

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup
September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com. The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans.
Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to name a few. Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR. They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.
The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer. Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
