Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich will wait until the outcome of Real Madrid's elections before making an official approach for striker Fernando Morientes.
The Spanish international is wanted by new Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho as talks with Olympique Marseille over Didier Drogba drag on.
If Florentino Perez is re-elected president, then he is expected to made Morientes available for £14 million. Abramovich is happy to meet that demand and bring the centre-forward to Stamford Bridge before the new season kickoff.
