Bayern target Bosingwa as Barca hope to nab Chelsea target Zhirkov

Bayern Munich are planning to raid Chelsea for Jose Bosingwa. The German side have missed out on Portsmouth's Glen Johnson, for whom Chelsea have agreed a £17million fee, and have switched their sights to the Portugal full back. The 26-year-old, who signed from Porto for £16m last summer, is under contract until 2011 but Bayern hope to exploit changes brought about by new boss Carlo Ancelotti with a £12m offer. Meanwhile, Barcelona are planning to hijack Chelsea's bid for Russia star Yuri Zhirkov after he said he did not want to be a squad player. But Chelsea are among the front runners in the race to sign Charlton's 17-year-old midfielder Jonjo Shelvey.
