Thierry Henry has explained the type of striker Chelsea could be signing in the summer, with Jonathan David reportedly on the Blues' radar. The 23-year-old has been heavily linked with a move to the Premier League for a while now as he continues to impress for Lille.
He once looked set to join Arsenal but, after signing Gabriel Jesus in the summer instead, their interest seems to have fizzled out now. football.london understands that Edu held meetings with David's representatives back in December 2021, but a switch failed to materialise.
According to French outlet L'Equipe, Chelsea are joined by Manchester United and Tottenham in the race to sign the Canada international. The Blues are still yet to find a worthy heir to Didier Drogba's throne, with only Diego Costa and Olivier Giroud coming close to fulfilling the Ivorian's duties.
