Chelsea ready to sign Ligue 1 striker
The Blues have allegedly recently began talks over potential transfer deal for Lille forward Jonathan Ikone.
The youngster looks an amazing young talent subsequent to grabbing the attention in Ligue 1, and his displays currently make them draw in solid enthusiasm from Chelsea and Inter Milan, as per report.
The 22-years-old’s scoring record is maybe not the best, with only three goals to his name in Ligue 1 this season, but has six assists and looks a solid all-rounder in attack, having filled in many positions.
The France forward has played on the two flanks, just as in even more a number ten role, and hopes to have huge potential as a player who could improve further and prosper with better players around him.
Chelsea have had a solid start recently with deals for Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner, and it appears they could as of now be chipping away at another amazing deals.
Jonathan Ikone could be another helpful alternative in Frank Lampard’s attack as Chelsea couldn’t replace Eden Hazard the previous summer due to being under a transfer ban by FIFA.
Pedro and Willian are also both reaching the ends of their contracts, so there could be space for a wide-forward like Jonathan Ikone in Chelsea’s squad next season.
