Chelsea have been one of England's most successful clubs over the past two decades, but have spent more than half that time desperately searching for a world-class striker.
Didier Drogba was an undoubted success, winning four Premier League titles and the Champions League during his nine years at the club across two separate spells.
But aside from the Ivorian, there have been far more misses than hits. Names such as Fernando Torres, Falcao, Gonzalo Higuain and Alvaro Morata do not bring back many happy memories for Blues fans.
Chelsea believed they'd finally landed their ideal No 9 when they re-signed Romelu Lukaku in 2021, but his return to Stamford Bridge has proved to be a disaster.
