Former Blues star Pat Nevin insists Chelsea should be targeting a new striker during this January window now that the Blues have completed the appointment of Liam Rosenior from Stasbourg.
CHELSEA are more than happy with the attack that he already has this season, but the lack of goals from Joao Pedro, Liam Delap and Marc Guia means that the Blues are looking this transfer window
Rosenior does not know what players will suit his style of play, but he does know that he needs a striker that will have the ability to score goals on a weekly basis, rather than every other game.
After a slow start to the season, Ollie Watkins now looks guaranteed to be part of Thomas Tuchel’s England World Cup squad having hit a purple patch, and Nevin has opened up and claimed that a move for Watkins should happen by the Blues.
‘Signing Ollie Watkins could be Chelsea’s top priority in this January transfer window,’ Nevin told ‘BetWright UK’.
‘With seven goals in his last seven games for Aston Villa in the Premier League, he’s hitting the form we saw a couple seasons ago.
‘I admire Liam Delap and his work rate, but when it comes to pure quality, Watkins is the more favourable option.’

We have seen big players move in the January window, but unless CHELSEA offer something crazy for Watkins, we cant see Villa letting one of the clubs star players leave when they are challenging for a Champions League place next season.
