Chelsea plotting surprise January transfer for £90,000-a-week striker – but under one condition

Andy Carroll

Chelsea could be set to make an approach for West Ham United’s Andy Carroll as manager Antonio Conte bids to reinforce his attacking line at the club.

After three successive 0-0 draws, Chelsea are in need of goals with summer signing Alvaro Morata failing to score since his goal against Brighton & Hove Albion on Boxing Day.

The Spain international forward has had a lot of opportunities since then to score more goals, including three begging chances against North London giants Arsenal, yet he has failed to score.

Although the tactician has Michy Batshuayi as an option at the club, Antonio Conte has decided against starting him the forward and persisted with Alvaro Morata upfront.

With the Blues losing ground in the Premier League title race after a goalless draw with Leicester City on Saturday afternoon, the Guardian suggests that Chelsea will rekindle their interest in the West Ham United striker.

Despite only netting twice for the club so far this season, Andy Carroll would give Chelsea a different option in attack and he would be available to feature in the UEFA Champions League.

The Blues are only looking at a short-term answer right now as they will likely go on a signing spree during the summer.
