Chelsea have been scouting Joao Felix this season but interest in the Atletico Madrid forward remains tentative at this stage, football.london understands.
The Blues found out on Tuesday afternoon that Armando Broja is set to miss the remainder of the season after he ruptured his cruciate ligament in his right knee, football.london understands. The 21-year-old striker requires surgery and will start his rehabilitation programme soon.
Chelsea had already discussed the possibility of bringing a new attacker to Stamford Bridge over the January transfer window, but with the news of Broja's season-ending injury, it could force the club's hand somewhat. One name that has been heavily mentioned in recent days if Felix, who wants to leave Atletico Madrid.
