Report: Chelsea want to sign in-form £68m striker, identified as 'big target'

In keeping with Spanish outlet Fichajes, Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic is an enormous goal for Chelsea throughout the summer time switch window.

The Blues strengthened their strike power with Nicolas Jackson final summer time, however the Senegalese star has largely misfired in entrance of aim. Chelsea will need an improve on the finish of the marketing campaign and Fichajes declare that the Blues might swoop for the companies of Vlahovic from Juventus.

The Serbian has discovered his scoring type over the previous few weeks and the Spanish supply declare that Juventus may very well be persuaded to promote for a payment of £68 million. Chelsea and Atletico Madrid have him as a ‘large goal’ and the striker has a troublesome option to make between the 2 this summer time.

High-class striker

Vlahovic had a tricky 2022/23 marketing campaign with the Bianconeri the place he struggled with a number of minor accidents. He ended up with solely 14 targets from 42 appearances. Chelsea have been linked with a transfer to signal him all through final summer time, however the hierarchy weren’t satisfied over a transfer for him.

Nevertheless, their stance appears to have modified. Vlahovic already has 12 targets from 23 appearances this season and 6 of these targets have come within the final 5 league video games. The Serbian is lastly discovering his toes at Juventus. If he can proceed his wealthy type, Chelsea might make a severe method this summer time.

Chelsea are at the moment within the backside half of the desk within the Premier League – the identical place they have been final season. There was progress by any means regardless of the large outlay and we might see one other spending spree in the summertime after participant gross sales. Vlahovic could be a cheap signing in comparison with somebody like Victor Osimhen.

The Napoli star at the moment has a launch clause value £111 million in his contract and the Serie A giants are unlikely to simply accept something much less for his companies.
