With just one week remaining in the current transfer window, Chelsea are looking to pull off one last major signing.
The Blues have already had an exceptional transfer window so far having bought in a host of talent.
But perhaps there is one final missing piece, and after they conceded three first half goals to West Brom on Saturday, it seems appropriate that the missing piece is a defensive player.
Chelsea are preparing a £40 million offer to sign Declan Rice from West Ham, according to an exclusive report from The Sun.
The report claims that Chelsea could include Antonio Rudiger on loan as part of the deal, due to The Hammers interest in signing the centre back.
The German international has been out of the Chelsea squad for the last three games and it seems clear that he will be off this window.
Chelsea could look to offer in other players as well to help sweeten the deal.
