The Blues signed two strikers last summer in Liam Delap and Joao Pedro, whilst Emmanuel Emegha will arrive from Strasbourg at the end of the season.
However, that hasn’t stopped Chelsea being linked with other strikers, and they are reportedly on the look out for another attacker.
Pedro has scored ten league goals this season and is thriving under Liam Rosenior, but the same can’t be said for Delap, who’s managed just two goals in 24 appearances.

However, journalist Gianluca Di Marzio has told Sky Sport Vlahovic is set to meet with Juventus in the next few days to discuss his future.
Di Marzio adds the Serbian wants to remain at Juventus, and the possibility of a contract renewal hasn’t been ruled out.
The 26-year-old has scored six goals in 17 appearances in all competitions this season, and has suffered injury problems this campaign.
Whilst Chelsea are reportedly interested in Vlahovic, one situation they need to sort out in the summer is the future of Nicolas Jackson.
Jackson is currently on loan at Bayern Munich, with the German champions unlikely to sign the 24-year-old on a permanent basis.
