A second source is now running a similar story from yesterday regarding Chelsea being interested in signing one new striker soon.

The Blues will be looking to bring in another main striker in one of the next two transfer windows, and they have been linked with plenty of names lately. We had the Victor Osimhen situation in the summer that we all know all about by now, and there might be something still with him to develop.

However, we are starting to see new and different names linked with Chelsea now, and a second source has now mentioned Chelsea alongside Lille's Jonathan David.

Yesterday, there was a report suggesting that The Blues have just sent scouts to watch David at the weekend, with the Canadian international still being on Chelsea's radar. And now there is a second report out today saying something similar.

Chelsea to rival Juventus for David

According to Calciomercato, Chelsea had already tried to sign Jonathan David last summer and still represent the most fearsome rival to Juventus in the race for the Canadian international.

The article is mostly on Juventus' interest in signing the striker when he becomes a free agent in the summer of 2025. But you will feel that his current club will want to try and sell him in January rather than risk losing him as a free agent at the end of the season, if he is not signing a new deal there which is as expected.

Chelsea have often been linked with David so you do feel that there might be something in this one as momentum builds on the story.

He is a striker who certainly knows where the goal is, being a high-scoring player throughout his career so far. Is he ready to make the step up in leagues though? Time will tell.
