Todd Boehly is ready to sign a top striker for Chelsea from Saudi Pro League.

Chelsea’s coach Mauricio Pochettino could be close to finishing his problems of effectiveness in the squad with the massive signing of a top scorer in the January transfer market, as the coach had already requested to the club’s owner Todd Boehly in the last few months.

In this sense, given the request of their manager, Chelsea’s owning board would have put their eyes on the Saudi Pro League to find the right star to lead the attack of the West London team during the second part of the season, which could end in a massive deal for the Blues to secure the return to European football of one of the top strikers in the Champions League history.

According to the journal The Sun, Chelsea would have set two candidates from the Saudi League to sign his top striker in the January transfer market window, and the Real Madrid former star Benzema and Liverpool legend Bobby Firmino would be the top options appearing on Todd Boehly’s wish list to offer a scorer to Mauricio Pochettino.

Following these sources, Benzema would be a step ahead of Firmino in the preferences of Chelsea’s board and the negotiations for the French star of Al Ittihad could be taking place in the next few weeks amid the winter break experienced in the Premier League to secure the player’s presence in the team for the second part of the season.
