Chelsea are eyeing a shock move for Brentford striker Igor Thiago when the transfer window reopens in the summer.
The west London giants have had a mixed Premier League campaign, but they are still in contention to qualify for the Champions League.
Fifth could be sufficient to make the European competition and they are presently two points ahead of sixth-placed Liverpool in the table.
Fichajes now claim that the Blues are unsatisfied with the current crop of strikers and are expected to enter the market for a new option.
Thiago has been identified as a top target by the hierarchy despite the fact that he has recently put pen-to-paper on a new long-term contract.
The Brazilian has been a revelation for the Bees this season with 17 Premier League goals and is an outside candidate to make the World Cup squad for his country too.
Brentford are poised to demand a premium fee for his services. They could hold out for £80 million to contemplate his sale in the summer.
