All the transfer chat right now is relating to a potential new striker arriving at Stamford Bridge this summer.
It appears that the club have a certain type of ready-made profile they are looking to bring in, a front man who will come in and bang goals in straight away and be a top class all-round number 9.
Erling Haaland from Dortmund is obviously the main guy, with pretty much every publication in the world in agreement that Chelsea will push hard to sign the 20-year old this summer.
BILD reporter Christian Falk is the latest to mention it, but he also names an interesting alternative.
I actually bought this news to you around three weeks ago on my personal site, Si Phillips Talks Chelsea, but the club ARE considering former striker Romelu Lukaku as an alternative to Haaland if they cannot pull that deal off.
Falk backs this up with his tweet below, and Matt Law of The Telegraph also reported it a couple of days back now.
TRUE ✅ Thomas Tuchel is interested in @RomeluLukaku9 if @ChelseaFC can‘t buy @ErlingHaaland this summer @Inter
