Chelsea are allegedly putting together a shortlist of forwards who may be available during the January transfer window.

Chelsea have allegedly put together a shortlist of forwards who they may be able to sign in January.

Having successfully halved their transfer ban, Chelsea are expected to be in the market for fresh faces at the beginning of 2020.

With Chelsea allowing Eden Hazard to leave for Real Madrid in the summer, Frank Lampard has hinted that making additions in the final third is a priority.

According to The Telegraph, the Blues have identified Wilfried Zaha, Leon Bailey and Samuel Chukwueze as potential signings.

While the three widemen are considered to be star men at Crystal Palace, Bayer Leverkusen and Villarreal respectively, Chelsea allegedly feel that bringing in one of the trio is more likely than signing the likes of RB Leipzig's Timo Werner or Lyon's Moussa Dembele.

The West Londoners are also considering whether to launch an approach for Bournemouth defender Nathan Ake.
