Chelsea have been told they should sign Cristiano Ronaldo - or face coming third again next season.
The Blues finished 19 points behind champions Manchester City, and 18 behind second-placed Liverpool as well last term. They have already signed Raheem Sterling to try and bridge the bap and and are set to bring in Kalidou Koulibaly and Nathan Ake as well.
But they waved goodbye to £97.5million striker Romelu Lukaku, who rejoined Inter Milan on loan, leaving themselves short up front. And while the one player they need to replace him is staring them in the face, they risk finishing behind City and Liverpool again if they fail to sign him.
