Chelsea Transfer News: No Bid For The Striker, Leicester City Joins The Race To Sign This Attacking Target

Chelsea have brought in Michy Batshuayi and N’Golo Kante in the squad this summer and so far and it does now seem like the Blues manager Antonio Conte is going to stop any time soon.

It has been a while since the Blues have been linked with Everton’s Romelu Lukaku. Reports suggest that Chelsea are yet to make an official approach for Everton striker Romelu Lukaku. Chelsea are determined to bring the player to the Stamford Bridge this summer and Lukaku’s impressive 25 goals last season has further motivated the Blues manager regarding the deal.

The Goodison Park outfit rejected many bid for their star defender John Stones, who is on the verge to join Manchester City, and now, Blue’s new manager Antonio Conte has set his eyes on a new player.

Further into the summer, Chelsea will have to battle it out against Leicester City for Brazilian striker Gabriel Barbosa. Reports suggest that the foxes are planning to offer £25m for the player’s signature. Ranieri will apparently use the availability of Champions League football to tempt the player to move to the King Power.

The Brazilian attacker has caught the eyes of many top clubs in Europe and even the Italian clubs, namely, Juventus and Inter are in the race, hence, the Blues will have to come up with a more concrete offer.
