Chelsea are interested in signing Juventus centre-forward Dusan Vlahovic.
That is according to a report from LondonWorld.
Dusan Vlahovic, who’s aged 24, is enjoying a stellar year so far for Italian giants Juventus.
The left-footed striker has been in sensational goalscoring form this season, netting 15 times in 23 Serie A appearances.

LondonWorld has claimed today that Chelsea will re-ignite interest in signing Vlahovic this summer after previously wanting him at the start of the season.
It is explained that the Blues want to add more firepower to their attack.
The report says that Juventus asked for around £50m for Vlahovic’s signature last summer, but it’s unclear on how much he’ll cost now after another really positive campaign in Turin.
The Daily Mail claimed in July last year that Chelsea head coach Mauricio Pochettino is a huge fan of Vlahovic.
Therefore, it’s not the biggest surprise that the Juventus star’s name has popped up again.
Chelsea interested in Dusan Vlahovic
Our wish is for Chelsea to sign a proven No 9 in the next transfer window. Remarkably, the Blues still need to add a prolific goalscorer at the top end of the pitch, even after the wild spending in recent years.
In our view, Vlahovic ticks so many boxes and makes great sense as a Chelsea target.
Of course, the one question mark against the power and aggressive striker is that he’s not yet proven in the Premier League division. However, he definitely passes the eye test and looks built for our league.
Described as “extraordinary” by Alessio Tacchinardi (JuveFC) , Vlahovic could be the frontman to really make the difference for a team like Chelsea. We’ve seen countless times this season when Pochettino’s side has been crying out for a finisher to convert chances.
