Chelsea might be in search of a new striker in the summer, with the club having striking crisis at the moment.

Reports claim Chelsea have made a serious statement of intent by submitting a £55million bid for Mauro Icardi as they look to beat Real Madrid to his signature.

According to AS, it’s expected that Inter will reject Chelsea’s initial proposal as the 25-year-old has a £96m release clause.

Icari has banged in 22 goals in just 26 appearances for the Italian giants this season.
