Koulibaly is reportedly looking to have his future resolved soon, after rejecting a new contract that would have seen his salary cut from €6m a year to €4m.
It is a major bone of contention among West Ham supporters that the club haven’t recruited a new forward since the departure of Sebastien Haller eighteen months ago.
Considering the number of sources that have linked Pulisic with a move to Anfield over the last week, there is likely to be some substance to the story, but whether any approach will happen as soon as Jones claims, it remains to be seen.
Lukaku is seemingly determined to return to Inter, but the Serie A club can only afford to loan the 28-year-old, which is not an arrangement that would be acceptable to the Blues. Fans on Twitter are, however, split on whether a deal would be a good idea if Skriniar moved in the other direction:
Sterling has just a year left on his contract and, while City are believed to be keen on keeping the winger, he has made it known that he won’t make a decision on his future until he returns from international duty.
While Chelsea may well be discussing Rice as an option, Jones is being rather speculative in terms of suggesting that the Blues can still afford him.
The 21-year-old has only recently signed a contract extension and the Foxes are expected to hold out for a fee in the region of €80m (£68.3m) if a team does make an approach for the centre-back this summer.
Barcelona’s Ousmane Dembele and Manchester City’s Raheem Sterling have already been tipped as potential targets to strengthen Thomas Tuchel’s options up front, but it is believed that Leao is also being considered.
You also have to remember that Romelu Lukaku is unsettled at Chelsea, and if the Belgian is sold or loaned out, manager Thomas Tuchel will be left with even fewer options.
