The Blues have picked up form under manager Liam Rosenior, and they are currently fifth in the league standings with 43 points on the board. The club are in a strong position to qualify for the Champions League next term, given fifth place could be enough to secure a berth. This could pave the way for a huge spending spree in the summer and reports claim that a new striker could be targeted by the Blues. Liam Delap has been underwhelming after his move from Ipswich Town. There is a possibility that he could be sold for a replacement. The Blues don't have any standout targets at the moment, but they have been linked with Atletico's Julian Alvarez in recent weeks.
Alvarez could be permitted to leave Atletico for £87 million. Arsenal are also keeping tabs on the former Manchester City striker.
