Chelsea planning record bid to sign Inter Milan star?

Chelsea could make a club-record bid to sign Inter Milan striker Lautaro Martinez in the January transfer window.

The Blues have experienced a difficult start to the Premier League season and they have only five points from as many games.

With the way they are going, the club are clear outsiders in the top four race and could end up in mid-table once again.

As a result, they could be forced to spend big on a new striker in January and Fichajes claim that Martinez is on their radar.

The Argentine has been a key player for the Nerazzurri over the years, but they could sell him for a significant transfer fee.

Inter's financial problems have been well-documented and it is claimed that Martinez could leave for a package of €150 million.

Such a fee is not out of the range of the Blues, and they could entice Inter to sell when the transfer window reopens this winter.
