The years advance, and Chelsea continues to suffer the same problem as in previous seasons, which is the lack of aim. It has been a long time since they have had a reliable striker who competes to be the top scorer, since the last player who is remembered to have had decent numbers was Diego Costa. Many stars have passed through the club, which invested a stratospheric amount in Romelu Lukaku, Timo Werner or Álvaro Morata, but none of them worked.
And the same thing is happening this year with Nicolas Jackson, signed from Villarreal, and despite having acceptable statistics, he is not the ‘9’ they need to be able to compete with Liverpool, Arsenal or Manchester City. This is demonstrated by the results, and Mauricio Pochettino has once again requested the arrival of a guarantee striker to Todd Boehly. And the name they have written down on the agenda is that of one of the revelations of the season in Europe.
Because Artem Dovbyk has managed to attract the attention of the ‘blues’ with the incredible level he is showing in the ranks of Girona. It has become the offensive reference for the Catalan team, which is currently second in La Liga EA Sports, with the same points as Real Madrid. He arrived as a complete unknown, and in a matter of a few months, he has earned himself the status of one of the most reliable goal scorers on the continent.

This is demonstrated by the figures it accumulates, with a total of 11 goals and six assists in 18 games. At 26 years old, he has agreed with Quique Cárcel, the sports director, who opted for his arrival, paying practically eight million euros to Dnipro from his native country, Ukraine. His market value has skyrocketed, and Stamford Bridge would be considering presenting an offer of an irrefutable value to get him out of Montilivi this January.
Michel Sánchez knows that there is a risk of losing one of the figures in the project, and seeing how he ends up moving to the Premier League.
Chelsea would pay more than 40 kilos for Dovbyk
The English have a very real interest in the former Danish Midtjylland playerand they would be willing to pay more than 40 ‘kilos’ to get Girona to open the exit doors for them.

Pochettino believes Dovbyk is the striker Chelsea need to bounce back.
