Premier League icon reveals the player Tuchel needs to sign next summer

Former Premier League player Alan Shearer has revealed the player Thomas Tuchel needs at Chelsea if he wants to compete for titles.

Chelsea under Thomas Tuchel has become a new team as they’ve been putting in an impressive performance that have seen them become more dangerous than ever.

Their good run continued on Sunday night as they dispatched Sheffield United and the result has left them fifth in the Premier League and a point behind fourth-placed Liverpool.

However, Alan Shearer has insisted that the blues need more firepower up front to increase their chances of winning silverware next season.

Alan Shearer who was speaking on BBC’s Match of the Day 2 stated that Tuchel has given everyone an opportunity as he didn’t play Mason Mount in the first game, he’s swapped it over with Ben Chilwell and Marcos Alonso, Olivier Giroud has been in there, he’s changed the system slightly.

However, Shearer still thinks Chelsea are lacking that top-quality centre-forward to challenge for the title. ‘

He added that the blues will challenge for fourth but he thinks to go to the next level they’ll need a top centre forward.

Chelsea brought in Timo Werner during the transfer window but the German international has failed to score in 14 Premier League matches.
