Chelsea’s transfer ban has been lifted and now newly-appointed boss Frank Lampard has his eye on a couple of key attacking pieces in the transfer market.

Upcoming star, Jordan Sancho seems to be the manager’s number one target bagging 9 goals and 10 assists in the Bundesliga already this season.

Don’t sleep on Frank Lampard’s young Chelsea squad who is currently in 4th place. A player of Jordan Sancho’s quality would be a scary addition for the rest of the league.

The Blues are also looking at Crystal Palace star Wilfred Zaha and Frenchman Moussa Dembele from Lyon before the January window closes. The Frenchman has been impressive this season scoring 10 goals in 18 Ligue one appearances.

According to sky sports news, Lyon has rejected an offer of around $34 million from Chelsea for the striker.

Wilfred Zaha has been wanting to depart from Crystal Palace since last season with moves linked to Everton and Arsenal that did not come to full fruition. The forward has expressed wanting out of Crystal Palace engaging with his agent Pini Zahavi about a move to Stamford Bridge. Pini Zahavi is said to have a close relationship with Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich and Blues management staff so I deal could be made.

As for Moussa Dembele, Chelsea’s first bid of $34 million for the French International was rejected. It didn’t stop the Blues from securing their man as now it looks like Dembele is set to move to the Bridge.

Willian, Giroud and Marco Alonso look to be the ones heading out of Chelsea this January market. Sources say Marco Alonso is linked with former boss Antonio Conte at Inter Milan.

Three top targets for Chelsea who do you think they’ll end up getting and the best choice for them going forward.
