Chelsea Hot On French Striker’s Trail

Chelsea Hot On French Striker’s Trail

The Blues are going through an unfortunate stage in the club’s history, with the team’s statistics and morale reaching the lowest levels in some time. As a change is manager does not seem plausible right now, many expect changes to be done on the lot. Players who are closing in on their last couple of months or players who have little influence over the team’s performance may be the first to be shown the door. Here you can include players like Ivanovic, Obi Mikel and Falcao to name a few. Looking at these possible moves from a current perspective, there is a fair chance no one will notice if any of the above mentioned left.

According to Metro, letting a group of players like these leave will surely obligate Chelsea to bring in new people. Apparently, on top of the list there are two French Internationals who are ready to move to the Premier League. First there’s Lyon’s Alexandre Lacazette whose failed attempt to leave France has had a massive impact on his performance. After being one of the most important scorers in Europe, he has ended up struggling to find his form. It is very likely to see him leave as soon as this January when a good offer from Chelsea would be very welcomed.

The second on the list is Atletico’s Antoine Griezmann. The 24-year-old has put in some impressive performances for his side and continues to score on a regular basis. This season he already found the net 7 times and provided 4 assists. His versatility would be well-received at Stamford Bridge where someone needs to start scoring and creating dangerous situations in front of goal.
