The Blues suffered a 2-0 loss to Manchester City in their Premier League opener at Stamford Bridge.

Nicolas Jackson was poor leading the line up front and he was guilty of missing some good chances.

The Blues clearly need an upgrade on the Senegalese star and reports claim that they could sign a new striker.

Napoli's Victor Osimhen has been a long-term target for the London giants, but he is reluctant to consider a loan move.

Chelsea don't have the funds to trigger his €130m release clause, but he is adamant that he wants a permanent switch.

He is also reluctant to accept a reduction in his salary.

Hence, the Blues are looking at other options in the transfer market. Brentford 's Ivan Toney is reportedly one of those.

Santiago Gimenez and Jonathan David are other candidates that the Blues could consider before the transfer window shuts.
