World Cup Winner Paulo Dybala Emerges as Chelsea Target<\/h2>\n

Paulo Dybala One of Two Serie A Strikers Considered by Chelsea<\/h3>\n

Chelsea\u2019s new manager Pochettino is keen to add some experience to his attacking line-up with Roma\u2019s Dybala and Juventus\u2019 Dusan Vlahovic being considered by the club.<\/span><\/p>\n

The report from The Independent<\/a> suggests that Pochettino has held talks with the West London\u2019s club\u2019s hierarchy, who are \u2018sympathetic\u2019 to his demand for players with more experience in attack, despite having a recruitment process based on bringing in young players.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

With the future of Romelu Lukaku set to be decided this week, the final destination of the Belgian striker could well have an effect on who Chelsea opt for out of Dybala and Vlahovic.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pochettino came close to signing Dybala during his time at Tottenham but the move fell through in the final stages, with various reasons quoted as to why the player could not leave Juventus.

Now at Roma, under former Spurs and Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho, Dybala could be available for just \u00a310.6 million<\/a> due to a clause in his contract that allows non-Italian clubs to snap up the World Cup winner at a cut price.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, Juventus have shown an interest in signing Lukaku<\/a> with discussions between the two clubs having taken place and the Independent\u2019s report claims that could \u2018smooth any potential talks\u2019 for Vlahovic.<\/span><\/p>\n

Danny Murphy<\/a> has voiced his concerns over Chelsea’s transfer focus. “Depending on Financial Fair Play, I think Chelsea want to be prioritising other positions.”<\/p>\n

Pochettino Confident of Adding More Quality to Chelsea Squad<\/h3>\n

Pochettino made it clear in his first press conference<\/a> as Chelsea\u2019s new head coach that there will be more quality added to the squad during the transfer window and that those players who do come in need to understand what it is to play for Chelsea.<\/span><\/p>\n

He said: “<\/span>We need to bring players in that believe from day one that it is all about winning, being competitive and giving our best. We are already working really hard and then we need to translate this energy to our fans to create a togetherness.<\/p>\n

‘What I found from day one, the squad is not all the squad yet, but the players were very open and the attitude was opening. We are going to add more quality.”<\/p>\n

Both Dybala or Vlahovic would certainly fit that mould and improve Chelsea’s attack, and compliment new signings Nicolas Jackson and Christopher Nkunku who both arrived earlier in the transfer window.<\/p>\n
