A round-up of the latest transfer speculation involving Chelsea…

Chelsea have again been linked with a move for Charlton teenager Ademola Lookman.

The striker, 18, has been monitored by several Premier League clubs, including Chelsea.

The Independent reports that the Blues and Manchester City are set to table a bid for him and that Everton and Tottenham are ready to follow suit.

Meanwhile, Spanish transfer-gossip website Fichajes claim Chelsea have offered £40m for Real Madrid midfielder Toni Kroos.

And a number of newspapers report that Ezequiel Lavezzi is wanted by Chelsea.

It comes after his agent Alessandro Moggi claimed that the Blues are in the running to sign the Paris St-Germain forward.

Miggi is quoted as saying: “Inter are certainly showing the greatest interest in the player, but there are also many other clubs in Europe keen on him, including Chelsea and Barcelona.”

Chelsea are also still widely reported to be keen to sign West Brom striker Saido Berahino.
