Chelsea wants to complete signing of £75M striker in January window

Reports have claimed CHELSEA are ready to pay £75 million and bring Sporting Lisbon striker Viktor Gyokeres to Stamford Bridge.

Gyokeres has once again been in tremendous form for Sporting Lisbon this season and already has 23 goals to his name, with four of those coming in the Champions League against Defending champions Manchester City.

He has been heavily tipped with a move to the Premier League, with many believing that he could follow Ruben Amorim to Man United, while it has been claimed that Arsenal are very much interested as they seek to add a 30 goals a season striker to their attack.

The club should no doubt be very pleased with the output of their two strikers so far this season. Nicolas Jackson found the net again in superb fashion against Leicester City at the weekend.

However, according to Record Portugal, the Blues are prepared to pay up to £75m for the striker in January, and they go on to say that the idea would be for him to not actually join up with the squad until the end of the season.

Look, Gyokeres is a very good striker that is banging in the goals, but we doubt a move will happen in the January window as Nicolas Jackson deserves his chance to prove himself this season.

So if we are going to try and sign the player, we are sure it will be at the end of the season.
