Chelsea are looking to sign a striker this January transfer window. The transfer window have begun, which means all the clubs would be trying to make new and exciting signings. Chelsea did not have a wonderful start to the year 2023. They only managed a draw with Nottingham Forrest in their first match of the year. They would be disappointed with the display of poor performance. The Blues already had an underwhelming season so far. They have struggled in scoring goals this season. Therefore they will be looking to sign new players in this transfer window. The Blues have been very busy even before the transfer window opened. Chelsea had already started their groundwork even before the transfer window even began.

Chelsea to try and sign a striker this transfer window

Since the injury of Armando Broja before the Premier League resumed again, it became clear that Chelsea are definitely going to sign a new striker. They were linked with Atletico Madrid forward Joao Felix lately. Though it could be a complicated deal for the January window. As the Premier League team is gradually adapting to Graham Potter’s possession-based football. The opportunity to sign such a world-class forward would be too good to pass for them. Joao Felix had shown the world of his capabilities at the World Cup. Felix looks to leave Atletico this January after his fallout with the club and the manager. Chelsea are said to be interested in signing the player either on a loan deal with a buy obligation. However, the fee could be as high as £113 million if Atletico look to recoup the amount that they spent on the player when they signed him from Benfica.

But According to the Athletic, the Blues are looking for more of a ‘penalty box specialist’ in January. Although there are not too many of those options available for them. They might have to search far and wide for a player in that position.
