It is believed that Chelsea’s technical director, Michael Emenalo is a big fan of Everton’s Romelu Lukaku as the club explore the possibility of re-signing the player.
According to a report from the Telegraph, Chelsea are keen to sign one big name striker this summer, with Loic Remy, Alexandre Pato and Radamel Falcao all set to leave the club.
It is believed that Chelsea are looking into the likes of Lukaku, Juventus’ Alvaro Morata, and Napoli striker, Gonzalo Higuain, but will only sign one of the three.
The report suggests that Chelsea have stepped up their interest in Lukaku and Morata over the course of the last week.
The striker is widely expected to leave Goodison Park this summer, but Everton are holding out for £65m.
The Blues could look into the option of a double deal for Lukaku and John Stones with the Stamford Bridge board exploring all their options.
