To improve the team’s offensive options, Pochettino has selected fresh striker targets for Chelsea.
The Blues are aggressively looking at solutions to strengthen their frontline after new boss Mauricio Pochettino highlighted worries about the team’s offensive capability for the forthcoming season. According to the Evening Standard, the club has a shortlist of prospective striker targets that includes Dusan Vlahovic from Juventus and Elye Wahi from Montpellier.
The decision to pursue these objectives has not been made in full. The team has added Nicolas Jackson and Christopher Nkunku this summer, but another attacker might join after Romelu Lukaku’s potential exit.
Chelsea’s desire to bolster their team’s potency is evident in their search of more offensive alternatives. In order to secure a well-rounded team for the forthcoming season, the proactive approach to identifying prospective targets has been inspired by Pochettino’s appointment as the new manager. Recent additions by the team and current negotiations with Wahi and Vlahovic show how committed they are to keeping their competitive edge in the Premier League.
AND WHAT’S MORE: Talks have commenced with Montpellier regarding Wahi, a promising 20-year-old striker who scored an impressive 19 goals in 33 league games last season. Dusan Vlahovic is also available at a price of £68 million (€79m/$86m). The club’s other admired strikers include Napoli’s Victor Osimhen and Atalanta’s Rasmus Hojlund.
