Chelsea have emerged as frontrunners to sign Borussia Dortmund talent Youssoufa Moukoko. The 18-year-old striker will be a free agent at the end of the season as he enters the final six months of his current deal in January.
Todd Boehly is set to back Potter in the January transfer window with new signings after spending close to £300million over the summer. The American owner was spotted in dialogue with the Blues boss and Behdad Eghbali after the 1-0 defeat against Villa in Abu Dhabi, potentially discussing transfer plans.
Boehly has shown that he is keen to sign talented youngsters to protect Chelsea's long-term future success. Moukoko is tipped to be one of the most promising strikers in Europe and has already registered 12 goal contributions in 12 starts for Dortmund so far this term.
