Chelsea are aiming to get at least five deals done before the end of the January transfer window, with Odion Ighalo, Alexandre Pato and Alex Teixeira all linked, along with a host of potential Stamford Bridge departures.
Paris Saint-Germain winger Ezequiel Lavezzi and Valencia defender Aymen Abdennour are also being eyed by the club, while Papy Djilobodji and Charly Musonda could be on their way out of the west London outfit.
Watford frontman Ighalo has drawn major interest after netting 13 goals in 22 Premier League appearances, and the Mirror's Darren Lewis reported the Blues are among the clubs monitoring his progress ahead of a summer move.
