The 3 strikers Chelsea should target when this summer

Chelsea’s transfer budget under new co-owners Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital has exceeded half a billion pounds in less than a year. Many signings were made in the summer to compensate for major losses, but few have had the intended impact. January saw huge investment again, but this time on young, promising players.
