Former Chelsea transfer target Jules Kounde could give Thomas Tuchel an unlikely boost in signing his "dream" striker this summer. It comes as the Blues continue their search for forward reinforcements, with just one week remaining in the transfer window before it closes.
The summer has already seen a raft of changes, with some high-profile names leaving the club for pastures new. The new ownership has shown plenty of backing to the manager to replace these players, with a mixture of first-team additions alongside players bought for the future.
However, an unfinished squad has seen a mixed bag of results in the Premier League, with one win, one draw and one loss so far. The latest was a 3-0 thrashing at the hands of Leeds United, with the Blues struggling to beat the press of the home side and created few chances of their own.
