Chelsea could reportedly offer up three of their current squad in order to land a player who has been named their ‘top target’ from Aston Villa in recent days.

Chelsea have added a good deal of talent to their squad so far this summer. The big names in forward areas are Jamie Gittens, Joao Pedro and Liam Delap.

But the Blues are still eager to add more depth to their forward ranks, and it’s recently been revealed that their ‘top target’ is Aston Villa’s Morgan Rogers.

TBRFootball reiterates that they have not ‘given up on’ the forward, who it’s believed will command an £80million fee, and they feel they can ‘still strike a deal with Aston Villa’.

But Chelsea have in mind a swap deal to bring down that price and get rid of some players who aren’t having as much of an impact as they feel Rogers will have.

The report suggests there are some players that Chelsea would look to send to Villa on ‘preferential terms’.

Tosin Adarabioyo, Trevoh Chalobah and Benoit Badiashile ‘could be offered’ to the Villans. Midfielder Andrey Santos is also a player Villa have ‘talked about’.

However, Villa’s interest in Blues forward Nicolas Jackson could prompt some movement. Villa have been contacted by intermediaries given Jackson is unsettled by the signings of fellow strikers Pedro and Delap.
