Chelsea have been so impressive this season so far. Not many people could rightly predict that a team like Chelsea who were so disorganized last season and could only finished tenth on the league table and without a trophy, could become the firm favourites to win the title this current campaign.

We should give kudos to the new Italian boss Antonio Conte, as he look set to win the Premier League title this season being his first in the club.

Since Chelsea currently have a 10 points lead over their closest rivals Tottenham Hotspur and are in brilliant form with just few matches to go, many already thinks Chelsea would get the crown.

The west London side adequately reinforced their squad last year summer under the management of the former Juventus coach. And as things stands now, it appears the Chelsea manager is already looking to further strengthen his team this upcoming summer by signing top players again.

It is already been reported that Conte is set to pay €38million to sign Bayer Leverkusen star player Hakan Calhanoglu.

23-year-old Hakan, in 22 games for his German Bundesliga side, scored 7 times and has provided 7 assists too – before getting a 4 month suspension from FIFA, which came as a result of him breaching an agreement with Trabzonspor.

It was added that Hakan’s representative confirmed that the Turkey international would be leaving the club this summer
Last February, one of the stories that went viral on the internet is a report about Hakan Calhanoglu claiming he is looking to join Chelsea.

BUT HOW GOOD IS HE?
The Turkish star is a versatile talent who can play anywhere in the midfield and also in the attack. He had been used as a central midfielder, as an attacking winger, and also as a secondary striker – and he effectively did well.
Additionally, he is said to be the best free kick taker at the moment, and his ability from set piece is fabulous.
