Chelsea to announce €68m deal for world-class striker as Giroud’s replacement

January 31, 2021 Peter Chelsea to announce €68m deal for world-class striker as Giroud's replacement

Chelsea are currently looking to seal the deal of one of their targets in order to continue their impressive runs under their new manager, Thomas Tuchel.

Chelsea endured a disappointing run in form under the management of Frank Lampard. Their poor performance saw them move from the top of the EPL table down to 10th position. Frank Lampard spent over £200m in the summer to sign the likes Timo Wener, Kia Hervetz and co.

These players were expected to propel Chelsea into mounting a title challenge this season. Sadly the goal was not achieved as they moved from a title challenging team in the early stage of EPL competition to a team struggling to make the top 4 spot.

Chelsea owner Roman Abrahimovic, considering the poor run in performance of his team had to sack team coach Frank Lampard and replace him with Thomas Tuchel.

Thomas Tuchel is expected to turn things around at Chelsea by building a title challenging squad. As part of his rebuilding plan, he has identified a particular player who he wants the club to sign for him.
