Blues eye River starlet

Chelsea have been linked with a move for 17 year-old River Plate starlet Lucas Ariel Ocampos.

Sources in Italy claimed that Palermo were set to seal a deal for the teenager, ahead of the transfer window re-opening in January.

But it has been rumoured that the Blues are interested in the striker, who has scored three times this season for River’s first team.

It’s believed that scouts of the Stamford Bridge outfit will continue to keep a close eye on the Argentinean’s progress, ahead of perhaps making a move in the coming months.

Is it good that Chelsea are looking at the future, or should they be focusing on the present?
