Top 5 alternatives to Edin Dzeko for Chelsea

#2 Fernando Llorente

...But then again, neither will Llorente

Current Club: Tottenham Hotspur

Value (as per transfermarkt): £7.20 million

Height: 1.93 m

Age: 32

Of the names on this list, only Fernando Llorente has played under Conte - a solitary year in Juventus where the Basque striker played 34 Serie A games and scored 16 goals, a tally not bettered since - and it's no secret that the Italian had wanted the striker in the summer transfer window, only to be gazumped by Tottenham Hotspur at the last minute.

He has, though, barely played for Spurs and a move to Chelsea would be beneficial for both him and the Blues; the question of whether Spurs would be willing to so evidently strengthen a direct rival mid-season is the only one that needs answering

Opinion

Suitability for Chelsea: 8/10

Actual possibility: 8/10
