Chelsea still in race for Franck Kessié

It’s another dreary day at the transfer rumour mill for Chelsea fans, with our squad looking easily good enough to see us through till the summer.

While it’s a little dull not having any exciting January moves lined up to keep things spicy, we only have ourselves to blame by having such a comfortable position in the title race.

One name still being linked with us is that of Franck Kessié, the Atalanta midfielder being chased by all of Europe’s top clubs.

Today it’s Italian site CalcioMercato connecting us with the dynamic Ivorian.

While a central midfielder is a priority for us in the summer, it’s hard to see the board spending big cash in January unless something really tempting comes along.

Chances are Franck will have to wait it out in Serie A and continue putting in big performances, knowing that Chelsea are watching from afar with a pocket full of Oscar money.
