Chelsea may not be done in the transfer window as they reportedly consider a bold swoop for Everton duo Anthony Gordon and Amadou Onana.
Everton announced the sacking of Frank Lampard on Monday afternoon and will be reluctant to sell anyone of importance as they look to battle to safety in the Premier League.
Gordon was close to a move to Stamford Bridge in the summer with a £40million bid being rejected by Everton as they stood firm to keep hold of the 21-year-old.

The Telegraph are reporting Chelsea are keen on the idea of signing Onana and Gordon, but with the intention of loaning them back to Goodison Park until the end of the campaign as the Blues battle relegation.
Gordon has struggled this season having scored just three goals in 18 appearances while making just a single start since the restart after the World Cup.
Onana, on the other hand, has looked good in a struggling Everton side and performed well when he got the chance for Belgium in Qatar.
