Thomas Tuchel ready to offload Chelsea strikers

Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel is prepared to part ways with Romelu Lukaku and Timo Werner this summer, Football Insider claims.

The Blues have had a good Premier League campaign, and they are currently lying third on the table with nine games to play.

Despite the solid position, there has been lot of frustration over the performances of the attacking players in particular.

Werner has failed to find his scoring boots for the second-straight season while Lukaku has also struggled since his homecoming.

The duo have netted a combined 19 goals in all competitions this term, but just six of them have come in the Premier League.

It is now reported that Tuchel is willing to offload the duo this summer. The Blues may have to cut their losses on the pairing.

Lukaku and Werner cost a combined fee of around £145m, and it is quite clear that the Blues are unlikely to recoup the sum.

Werner has been linked with a move to Dortmund this summer while Lukaku has been fancied to return to Inter, both on loan.
