The Blues are keen on landing a marquee striker and they have been linked with several names over the past few weeks.

It is now reported by Gaston Edul that the Blues are one of the teams who are interested in landing the services of Alvarez.

The Argentine's playing time drastically reduced in the second half of last season with Kevin De Bruyne returning from injury.

The World Cup winner is said to be eyeing a guaranteed starting role and this could pave the way for his departure this summer.

Paris Saint-Germain have expressed an interest in signing him, and it is now revealed that the Blues are also in contention.

Nicolas Jackson was guilty of missing several clear-cut chances on goal last term and the Blues are eyeing a trustable marksman.

Alvarez has shown his brilliant finishing ability with the Cityzens and he would be a fantastic acquisition for the Blues.
