Chelsea are looking at potentially adding a new striker to the first team squad in the summer, depending on what happens with Liam Delap.

There is a sense that they still don’t have a strong enough front line, with only Joao Pedro who has been performing consistently well.

As I have reported many times now, Delap is wanted by a few clubs this summer, and as you will see in another sourced article out today, there is a new club in for him as well now.

Chelsea only paid £30m for Delap, so they will certainly be open for business to sell him this summer after what has been a really disappointing season from the striker.
