Chelsea Reportedly Make Robert Lewandowski Top Target in Latest Transfer Rumours

Bayern Munich forward Robert Lewandowski is reportedly Chelsea's primary summer transfer target.

According to Sam Wallace of the Daily Telegraph, while there is uncertainty at Stamford Bridge over the future of manager Antonio Conte, the Blues are ready to push on with their recruitment nonetheless. Lewandowski is said to be top of the club's list.

It's reported the Poland international would likely cost around £100 million, and his arrival would potentially spell the end for Alvaro Morata with the London club.

"Although Lewandowski's age is not ideal for the kind of hefty price Chelsea would have to pay—he turns 30 in August—he does fit the bill for a proven European goalscorer and his arrival would also be a crucial way of persuading Eden Hazard, and Thibaut Courtois that Chelsea are serious about challenging again for the Premier League and the Champions League," Wallace wrote.
