12 lug 2017

It is not a secret that Chelsea are looking to add more offensive power to their roster as Romelu Lukaku finally signed with Manchester United instead. It now seems like Alvaro Morata is a serious candidate as his future remains in heavy doubt. According to sources close to Calciomercato.com, it seems like if Chelsea are also strongly considering Real Madrid's Alvaro Morata as Conte likes him a lot.

Morata seems to be one of Conte's priorities but another serious option is Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. The Gabon international has attracted plenty of interest from China as well as from AC Milan. Borussia are likely looking to receive close to 70 million euros for their star striker. Andrea Belotti is another option but Torino president Cairo stated that Chelsea have not submitted any offers for his striker to date.

Chelsea are coming off an impressive league title victory as they will participate in next year's UEFA Champions league. Antonio Conte has already stated in the past that he wants the Chelsea management to add more quality to his roster ahead of next season....
