6 possible destinations for Alexandre Lacazette after Atletico Madrid transfer ban

Antonio Conte will look to beef up his options up front with Champions League football to come

Although Michy Batshuayi got the goal that sealed the Premier League title for Chelsea, there is still some scepticism over his long-term suitability for the English champions. Beyond Diego Costa, who now looks likely to remain at Stamford Bridge, the Blues do not have a great deal of depth in the centre forward position.

Next term they will have the additional burden of Champions League football and Lacazette would appear to be a solid addition to their roster, although he is perhaps not quite creative enough to feature in the 3-4-2-1 formation the Italian prefers. With club-mate Corentin Tolisso in talks about a move to the Blues and Bertrand Traore set to move the other way, it would be surprising if Lacazette’s name was not mentioned in talks.
