Anyways, The Times reports that Chelsea are now looking at Islam Slimani of Leicester City. The striker hasn’t played much for the Foxes this season and the club is keen to let go of him. However, they want a permanent deal, which doesn’t match with the London club’s desire to bring him on loan.

Meanwhile, The Sun seems to believe that Edin Dzeko’s deal to Chelsea is nearing completion as the Blues are set to spend an initial £28 million for the 31-year-old. That’s not all, though. Reportedly, there are going to be added incentives in the deal that could make it worth over £30 million.
