Niang the next in line for Chelsea striker link

Another day and another striker is linked to Chelsea, with M'Baye Niang being the latest player rumoured to the club according to The Daily Express. Given that this a club that does not do things the easy way, it is no shock to hear that Niang is contracted to Milan until 2018 therefore any potential move would take a hell of a transfer fee to force through. Further to this Niang was very much up for grabs in the summer and you can't help feeling that this could be a case of closing the door after the horse has bolted.

There is no evidence to suggest that the Frenchman has not settled in Italy, with reports indicating that his stock is in fact growing considerably at AC and the that he is very much a part of the first team squad suggest the club have high aims for their young protege.

So for now this one looks very much a no go, however, you can only hope that every linked player to the club that is not a viable option will bring them a step closer to realising that they already have the player they are longing for; Romelu Lukaku. Spare a thought to for poor Fernando Torres, for who things have reached such a low that the rumours are now that he is being replaced by a player who has not even close to fully established himself.
