Antonio Conte is so keen on bolstering his squad ahead of a busy campaign next term and is determined to sign several top players this summer.
It is understood that deals for both Tiemoue Bakayoko and Antonio Rudiger are close and the Italian manager wants the management to complete five major signings this summer after deals for the duo.
After a quiet start to the summer window, the Stamford Bridge club are starting to make progress on some deals and Tiemoue and Rudiger are believed to be close to coming to Stamford Bridge.
Conte wants the club to splash the cash, having only secured goalkeeper Willy Caballero on a free transfer from Man City, ahead of a busy campaign next season.
He is leading the west London club back to the Champions League next term and, according to the Daily Telegraph, wants five more players to be signed.
Juventus star player Alex Sandro has also emerged as a target for Chelsea this summer and the Brazilian full-back is said to be keen to play at Stamford Bridge.
Additionally, the premier league champions have also expressed interest in signing another Brazilian star in the person of Danilo. The Real Madrid defender is valued at around £30million and is still fighting for a regular spot in Zinedine Zidane’s squad.
