The January transfer window is in full swing, and Chelsea are already making moves in the market.
England international midfielder Ross Barkley has arrived from Everton, but there are still holes that need plugging in Antonio Conte’s squad.
The Italian does not appear to fully trust Michy Batshuayi to lead his forward line, and Marcos Alonso could do with some genuine competition on the left-hand-side of the defence.
These are just two areas that the Premier League champions could look to build on this month – but who in particular should be be targeting? TalkChelsea have hand-picked three potential targets who would take the Blues to the next level.
Mauro Icardi
Though just 24-years-old, Mauro Icardi is already considered one of the best strikers in the world. The Argentine has found the back of the net 18 times in 20 Serie A appearances so far this term, bringing him on par with the world elite.
Alvaro Morata is great, but he’s still slightly rough around the edges. Icardi would provide genuine competition for the Spaniard, and Conte would have the option to play them upfront together.
He wouldn’t come cheap, but he’d be worth every penny…
Alex Telles
We ought to accept defeat in our reported pursuit of Juventus left-back Alex Sandro. It has dragged on too long and the player has shown no genuine intent to push through a move to Stamford Bridge. It’s time to look elsewhere.
Telles has proven himself to be an accomplished full-back both offensively and defensively. He would be following in the Sandro’s footsteps by leaving FC Porto to join one of the biggest club sides in the world, and he could prove to be every bit as good.
Arturo Vidal
Let’s make a statement. Roman Abramovich ought to show the European football world that the fire that burned in his belly when he first arrived at the club in 2003 is still lit.
Arturo Vidal is the midfield general that every manager craves. Acting as the back-bone of the team and leading his troops into battle.
The prospect of him lining up alongside N’Golo Kante is utterly mouthwatering. Assume he’d be keen to link-up with former manger Antonio Conte, let’s get this one done.
