Chelsea are in the market for a striker this summer but have yet to settle on a particular target.
According to Sky Sports, the Blues want an understudy for Nicolas Jackson.
Chelsea’s sporting directors, Paul Winstanley and Laurence Stewart, are considering Benjamin Sesko, Liam Delap and Jonathan David.
Sesko and Delap are still developing strikers, while David has established himself in Ligue 1 with LOSC Lille. The trio are fantastic centre-forwards.
The Blues need an upgrade
Chelsea crying out for a centre-forward with a track record of leading teams to titles and competing in the upper echelon, not another unproven player.
The two-time Champions League winners have enough of those at the moment.
Jackson is still a prospect and should play understudy to someone worthy of leading the line at a club of Chelsea’s stature.
Chelsea must rekindle Victor Osimhen pursuit
They tried to sign him last summer but could not get a deal over the line.
The Nigerian international is spearheading Galatasaray to the Turkish Super League title. His brace sent Gala into the semi-final of the cup.
The 26-year-old led Napoli to only their third Scudetto in 2023 with 26 goals in 32 games. He has tallied 28 goals and five assists in 32 outings for Gala this term.
If Chelsea want to compete with Manchester City Liverpool and Arsenal, they need more than potential. The Blues need presence and Osimhen provides that.
He is not only a goal machine but also a leader on the pitch – a striker who thrives under pressure and delivers when it matters most.
