REAL try to call a truce with chelsea

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is seeking talks with Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich over a transfer truce.

Perez believes Real and Chelsea are pushing the market value of some players to unreachable heights and wants talks with Russian billionaire Abramovich to settle on a pact that they won't interfere with eachother's transfer targets.

Last season, both Real and Chelsea battled for then Porto stopper Ricardo before the London club won the Portugal international's signature for almost £20 million.

Now Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard's price is reaching untouchable heights as Real and Chelsea fight for his signature.

Perez is convinced both clubs are hurting eachother in the market and is seeking co-operation with the Blues about not stepping on eachother's toes ahead of the summer transfer window opening.
