Chelsea are convinced of prising Luka Modric away from Tottenham with a £30 million bid.
The Sun says the Blues are set to improve their offer to £30million but insist they will not break the bank to sign the Croatian playmaker.
Tottenham have already rejected raids of £22m and £27m from their London neighbours.
Yet Chelsea are confident £30m will finally land their man - a figure that still falls way below Spurs boss Harry Redknapp's valuation for the unsettled midfielder, who missed Saturday's pre-season friendly at Brighton due to illness.
New Blues chief Andre Villas-Boas has already spoken with Stamford Bridge chief executive Ron Gourlay about new signings.
When asked about Modric, Gourlay said: "I don't like talking about players from other clubs. But that's something we'll look at during the week and we'll take it from there.
"We really need to sit down with Andre and talk this through.
"Even though we've been travelling in the Far East for the past two weeks, you can still be active in the marketplace nowadays.
"The communication is always there with our guys back in London or wherever they are around the world."
