Chelsea are ready to make a move for Borussia Dortmund striker Robert Lewandowski. The Daily Mail says Jose Mourinho recognises that Chelsea are lacking up front, although he will not admit loaning out both Romelu Lukaku and Victor Moses for the season was a mistake.
A £7 million offer is being prepared for Lewandowski ahead of the January market.
Despite claims of a pre-contract with Bayern Munich, it's understood that Bayern boss Pep Guardiola is not entirely sold on the idea of integrating the robust Poland striker into his team.
