Yet again, Chelsea are being rumoured with a whole host of different players in the January transfer window, with the majority of names popping up, are strikers.
The most talked about out of the selection is Brazilian striker Alexandre Pato, who’s deal to move to Stamford Bridge could be completed sooner than we think. The latest on the former AC Milan forward is that terms over the deal are close to being completed and agreed on. The fee could be cut short of what the majority of papers have reported, but it’s now looking like a matter of when, not if, the deal is concluded.
Away from the Pato news, there’s still several players being linked with a move to West London.
