The Blues are keen to add another striker to their squad this summer. They are not fully impressed with Nicolas Jackson. Jackson had a good start to this season but his form dipped drastically. In addition, he has suffered injury issues.
Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca wants more firepower in the squad. He is keen to bring in a new striker and will be backed by the club. The Blues may opt to spend big again as they are set to part ways with many of the current players.
Chelsea in fresh talks with highly clinical striker
The star in question here is Viktor Gyokeres of Sporting. He has been superb since joining the Portugese giants. So far he he has played 95 games for Sporting and has recorded 87 goals along with 24 assists. This makes him a top target for multiple top clubs across whole Europe.
According to TEAMtalk, Chelsea are in direct contact with the representatives of Gyokeres. They are ready to spend around €75 million to sign him. But, the Blues face a very heavy competition from their london rivals Arsenal.
Gunners are said to have upper hand in the race for Gyokeres. They already had positive talks with the player’s camp. In addition, his agent is close friend of Mikel Arteta and was present for their UCL clash against Madrid.
Gyokeres will be great addition to any of the london giants. He will prefer to join a club playing in Champions League. He has experience of playing on English soil which will be added advantage for both Arsenal and Chelsea.
