Andre Villas-Boas<\/a> has stated that Chelsea<\/a> will not make bids for Gary Cahill<\/a> or Luka Modric<\/a> in the January transfer market.<\/p>\n

The window will be reopen in three weeks time but the Blue\u2019s manager has expressed his satisfaction with his current squad despite links to a number of players.<\/p>\n

One of those names linked to the club is England international Gary Cahill whose contract at the Reebok stadium expires next summer.<\/p>\n

The 25-year-old was strongly linked to Arsenal and Tottenham in the previous transfer window but Villas-Boas has dismissed new rumours linking him with Stamford Bridge.<\/p>\n

“He’s a fantastic player because he plays for the English national team, a central defender of high qualities,\u201d he told Sky Sports.<\/em><\/p>\n

“He had a fantastic year last season for club and country. But he is not a player that we are considering.”<\/p>\n

Another player ruled out by the 33-year-old is Tottenham\u2019s midfield playmaker Luka Modric, who was the subject of several bids from the Blues during the summer.<\/p>\n

“We have [Michael] Essien returning and I think we have left that one for sure,” he said<\/p>\n

Chelsea have also been linked to a move for Porto wingback Alvaro Pereira, who Villas-Boas managed at Porto.<\/p>\n

It is believed that the Portuguese side rejected a bid for the 26-year-old Uruguayan from Chelsea in the summer but the manager claims that he is happy with the players at his disposal.<\/p>\n

He added: “I don’t think so based on prices and because we are not looking. We are pretty satisfied with what we’ve got.”<\/p>\n
