Chelsea encouraged to sign powerhouse striker in January

Chelsea should consider snapping up “different level” Ivan Toney from Brentford to add to that attack

The club have not had the start to the new season that many people had hoped for and Graham Potter knows that in order to keep his job – he needs to do something about it.

And there is still alot of speculation about who they could make for in the coming transfer window – as they are in dire need of adding a new striker to that front line.

Recent reports on Fichajes has reported that Potter’s side is the first club to show interest in the signature of Toney

And now they have been told that they should try and snap up Brentford hitman Toney

Iomie Stanley told IcFootballnews.: “I’ll say this. Is there many better strikers in the Premier League right now than Toney?

“The proof is in the pudding, he’s promoted to the Premier League with a team that’s not fancied to stay up, he’s one of the top three goalscorers in the Premier League in a team that, again, is not a favourite to be top-10, top-12 in the Premier League.

‘Chelsea need an out and out striker – a man that can hold the ball up -win things in the air and give Potter something different in attack

“If you were Chelsea and you can go and write a cheque for £100million and but a striker that has all the potential to be one of the best.

“Toney is destined for one of the big clubs and if i was one of the Chelsea owners – he is definitely a player i would look into signing.’
