Chelsea could make a shock attempt to sign Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic next year, according to Il Bianconero.
The Blues bolstered their striking department this summer with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, but they are still eyeing a long-term solution.
A number of strikers have been linked in recent weeks and it is now reported that the Blues are very keen on Vlahovic.
The Serbian was on the radar of Arsenal in January, but he decided to snub them to join Juventus from Fiorentina.
He has since struggled with just 14 goals from 30 appearances, and there are suggestions that he is far from pleased.
Amidst this, Chelsea are mulling over an approach and we won’t be surprised if they are prepared to pay big for him.
New owner Todd Boehly has been willing to spend vast sums of money and the focus is primarily on upcoming stars.
Vlahovic perfectly fits into that category. Juventus may want to recoup the entire fee (£66.6 million) paid to Fiorentina.
