    Mario Mandzukic - Bayern Munich

    Last but certainly not least, Bayern Munich forward Mario Mandzukic, who himself is an extraordinary player in front of goal. For me the Croatia international is criminally underrated and his talent is somewhat hidden in what is an exceptionally strong Bayern side.

    He's tall, he's powerful and he's a real poacher in the box, and I think it's the latter that is the most important asset for the Blues right now. With the wealth of talent that could potentially be sitting behind him at Stamford Bridge the 27-year-old could be scoring for fun.

    He has managed 14 goals this season in his 28 games but could lose his place in the team this summer with the pending arrival of Robert Lewandowski from Borussia Dortmund. Surely that can only be good for Chelsea, as game time is important for such a talented player.

    Although he is the oldest of the bunch, Mourinho has proved in the past that he is more comfortable working with a mature squad than a young one, so even that can be seen as a positive.

    I would say that Chelsea should certainly be moving for Mandzukic.
