According to press reports in Holland, Tunisian international defender Karim Saidi is wanted by Chelsea, the current No. 1 in the English premiership. Representatives of the British club apparently held talks with the Dutch club Feyenoord, which owns the young Tunisian talent, the reports added. However, it is predicted that Feyenoord chiefs are unlikely to sell Saidi, who is considered an important asset to the club. Saidi, 21, left last summer the Tunisian side Club Africain and signed a four-year deal in Feyenoord.  

 

It should be mentioned that Saidi's fellow Tunisia team mate, defender Hatem Trabelsi is playing for Feyenoord's bitter rival, Ajax. (albawaba.com)
