Pochettino’s sueño en el día de cierre del mercado: Chelsea adquiere ganga de £18m y vende delantero a rivales
Chelsea has been quiet in the January transfer window, but they may be looking to improve their squad with a deadline-day move for a prolific striker. The Blues have been the Premier League’s busiest club in terms of recruitment in recent years, but they have not yet welcomed any new faces to Stamford Bridge this month.
The Argentine boss has expressed his desire to strengthen the squad this month, with the forward line being an area that needs attention. While Chelsea have been linked with high-profile names like Karim Benzema and Victor Osimhen, they may find their ideal solution in the form of Newcastle striker Callum Wilson.
Newcastle may be looking to sell players to comply with FFP regulations, and Wilson could be one of their most saleable assets. Wilson has been in good form, averaging a goal every 103 minutes in the Premier League this season, despite being mainly on the bench.
While he is also a target for Manchester United and Arsenal, his destination after the deadline remains uncertain. Chelsea will be hoping for Wilson to make a similar impact to his previous spell at the club, but they may need to sell Armando Broja to secure the deal with Newcastle.
Broja’s struggles in front of goal this season may see him move to Fulham, which could pave the way for Wilson to join Chelsea. The final hours of the January window will reveal whether Chelsea can bolster their attacking options with Wilson and if Broja will make the switch to Fulham.
