Arsenal, Swansea Stars On The Radar Of Chelsea, Seek Cover For Moses
Published: August 20, 2017
Chelsea remain interested in signing Arsenal winger Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Swansea striker Fernando Llorente.
The Daily Mail says the two players are on the agenda of manager Antonio Conte, eleven days before the transfer window slams shut.
England star Oxlade-Chamberlain is in the final year of his contract with the Gunners, and Chelsea are prepared to wait for him to wind his contract down, so he can be signed for nothing in 2018.
Llorente has not featured for the Swans this season as he is not yet in tip-tip condition after suffering a broken arm during a cycling incident while on holiday.
The Premier League champions are also in the market for a right wing-back to provide cover for Victor Moses, who was excellent last term.
The Nigeria international watched proceedings from the stands as Chelsea were shocked 3-2 by Burnley on the opening day, but is expected to return to the starting XI against Tottenham on Sunday.
