Chelsea are looking for a potential signing for January
Christopher Nkunku has already given Bayern Munich real encouragement that they can seal a deal for the 27-year-old before time runs out, so a mid-season departure for a player Enzo MarescaIt can happen to even the best scorers in all competitions.

Chelsea will demand up to £60m to allow the Frenchman to leave, so there is clearly work to be done on that front, and it is unclear whether Bayern would be willing to pay such a price for Nkunku – despite him clearly being a top target. . .
Nkunku is expected to leave Stamford Bridge Chelsea will seek to sign a new striker before February 3 (Simon Phillips). Ipswich Town star Liam Delap is high on the wish list of co-sporting directors Lawrence Stewart and Paul Winstanley, as the Blues take a firm approach to the 21-year-old.
Chelsea have made contact with Delap's camp for the second time In the last few weeks, and most recently (Simon Phillips). This interest comes amid his admiration Premier League campaign at Portman Road, where he impressed as one of Kieran McKenna's stars in a relegation-threatened side.
The former Manchester City gem is by no means the striker's only reported target, and there are suggestions of that Chelsea could rival Arsenal for RB Leipzig star Benjamin Sisko.
Chelsea is in talks with Dusan Vlahovic through his representatives
Interestingly, according to a report by Calciomercato in Italy, Sisco is not the only striker Chelsea could look to challenge Arsenal for.
Juventus strike Dusan Vlahovic A target for both London clubs, the Serbia international faces an uncertain future as his contract expires in 2026. Chelsea have already made contact with Vlahovic's campalong with Arsenal, as both sides search for a new striker.
The 24-year-old, who earns around £195,000 a week according to this report, has scored 12 goals in 24 appearances in all competitions so far.
Calcio claims Vlahovic will be allowed to leave before the deadline, but not unless the club pays a asking price of up to £51m. The former Fiorentina star scored 21 goals in the 2020/2021 season for La Viola, his best season to date, but he came very close to that mark by scoring 18 goals for Juventus last season.
Vlahovic is clearly a player who knows where the net is, so Juve are not planning to let him leave cheaply, regardless of his contract situation.
