The Chelsea team are currently made up of attacking midfielders such as Eden Hazard, Oscar, Ramires, Nemanja Matic, Willian, Mohamed Salah, Frank Lampard and host of others. You would assume that in the area of midfield no problem.
But that don't seem to be the case, reports says that Chelsea has made Juventus play maker Paul Pogba their major target for the summer.
The France international has been the subject of serious interest from Real Madrid and Paris Sain-Germain, with the French champions reported to be leading the chase for him.
However, Londoners are willing to use the €49 million raised by the sale of David Luiz to PSG to part-fund a bid for the former Manchester United man.
Juventus on the otherhand are determined to keep hold of the 21-year-old but could be tempted into a sale were they to receive an offer in the region of €80m.
Jose Mourinho has made it clear to the Chelsea hierarchy that he wants a marquee central midfielder to partner January signing Nemanja Matic next season.
Everybody would agree that the reason for Chelsea trophy drought this season is due to lack of adequate finishing by the strikers available. But instead of shopping for strikers they are in the market for more midfielders.
