England international Andy Carroll is reportedly open to the prospect of joining Chelsea from West Ham United this month.
The Blues failed with a loan approach for the striker earlier this month, and they are now looking at the possibility of a permanent deal.
According to The Evening Standard, both clubs have yet to open talks over the proposed transfer, but the Hammers would take a fee of around £20m, who has had multiple injury concerns.
However, David Moyes does not share a similar opinion to the club's hierarchy in regards to the marksman, and he would want a replacement first before selling the ex-Liverpool ace.
Chelsea boss Antonio Conte has stuck with Alvaro Morata up front without much success of late, and he is looking at Carroll as a potential back-up option from the bench.
Should the deal go through, current deputy Michy Batshuayi could be offered a route to the Spanish La Liga where he is presently attracting loan interest from Sevilla.
