Chelsea could have their perfect striker incoming handed to them after Lille's manager Paulo Fonseca admitted Jonathan David could leave. The Canadian striker has been a long-term target for several Premier League sides including Chelsea and has previously explained his admiration for the league.
After third-choice striker Armando Broja was ruled out for the rest of the season with an anterior cruciate ligament injury, Graham Potter has been handed a dilemma heading into January with 33-year-old Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Kai Havertz the only two senior players for the centre-forward slot.
The Blues had already been expected to have a busy winter window with extra reinforcements needed across the pitch, but Broja's knock has left a new hole.
