Chelsea's ongoing issues in the final third this season have placed further emphasis on a need for an out-and-out goalscorer. The Blues have scored the fewest number of goals in the league's top 11 and have only scored more than one in seven Premier League games.
Post-World Cup, Chelsea have scored seven goals in 13 games. Joao Felix's temporary move from Atletico Madrid has injected a desired quality in Graham Potter's frontline, but the Portuguese has managed to net just the single goal in five games.
Kai Havertz is often preferred to take up the central position of Chelsea's front three. However, the German has failed to kick on from his famous UEFA Champions League final winner in 2021 and has faced strong criticism for his recent performances.
