The burly hitman was part of Villas-Boas' Porto side that won the quadruple in Portugal last season.
And with Florent Malouda and Salomon Kalou set to leave Stamford Bridge at the end of this campaign, Hulk could be set for a reunion with his old manager.
Villas-Boas said: "We have Kalou and Malouda, both of whom are nearing the end of their contracts, while Juan Mata and Daniel Sturridge are the future.
"As such, there will surely be a place to fill and I see room for an explosive player on the wing, someone who is strong in one-on-one situations and Hulk fits that profile."
However, Porto are desperate to hang on to their prized asset, with president Jorge Nuno Pinto da Costa slapping a whopping £85million fee on Hulk's head.
