Chelsea ‘eyeing’ swoop for 25-goal striker as Tottenham Hotspur turn to playmaker

Chelsea are back in action this weekend with an away trip to Wolves. The Blues drew 0-0 against Liverpool at Stamford Bridge last time out.

Tottenham Hotspur, on the other hand, drew 1-1 away at Everton on Monday night. Here is a look at some of the latest transfer news and rumours regarding the pair...

Striker on Chelsea’s radar

Chelsea are being linked with a swoop for Portugal international Goncalo Ramos from Benfica. Football Insider claim the Blues have identified him as a potential summer target and they are ‘eyeing’ a transfer move for him at the end of this season.

It is no secret that the London club are lacking a cutting edge up top and they could see the 21-year-old as someone to bolster their options in their attacking department ahead of the next campaign. He has scored 25 goals this term and could be a cheaper alternative to Napoli hotshot Victor Osimhen.

Spurs target England international

Spurs are apparently looking to snap up Leicester City playmaker James Maddison along with Premier League rivals Liverpool. 90min claim they are ‘interested’ in luring the England international, formerly of Coventry City and Norwich City, to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The 26-year-old is currently looking to help the Foxes avoid relegation to the Championship and they are in the drop zone after their recent run of form. He has been on the books at the King Power Stadium since 2019 and has since chipped in with 54 goals in 195 appearances in all competitions.
