Chelsea have reportedly started talks over multiple striking options, including Juventus’ Dusan Vlahovic, because Mauricio Pochettino wants more ammunition up top.
Alongside Vlahovic, the Blues have been putting out feelers regarding multiple options, including Montpellier’s Elye Wahi, as reported by the London Evening Standard.
Serbia international Vlahovic scored 14 goals in all competitions last season and Juventus are reportedly willing to let him go for £21million provided Chelsea include Romelu Lukaku in a swap deal.
Meanwhile, initial discussions have begun over 20-year-old Wahi, who bagged 19 goals last season.
He has completed three seasons in Montpellier, but is keen on a move to Arsenal if reports are to be believed - a factor that could make a Chelsea move awkward.

Chelsea have already been busy making additions to their forward line this summer.
In June, they confirmed the signing of Christopher Nkunku for a £53m fee from RB Leipzig on the back of 58 goals in the last two seasons.
Right at the end of the month, they unveiled Nicolas Jackson as their next forward addition on a £32m deal from Villarreal.
The 22-year-old scored nine goals in his last eight games of the 2022/23 season.
