Chelsea tracking Mauro Icardi
Chelsea are monitoring the progress of Argentine striker Mauro Icardi, with a view to a summer move for his services, according to an Italian source.
The talented striker has been in good form for Inter Milan this season, and this has attracted interest from Atletico Madrid and Chelsea.
Gazetta dello Sport reveals that the Blues lead the chase for the player's services, and consider the 21-year-old as the ideal replacement for Didier Drogba, who is likely to exit the club next season at the earliest given his ageing factor.
The report adds that the West London outfit have been impressed by the striker's showing and could make a £32m bid for his signature next summer.
