Gianfranco Zola has appeared to confirm Chelsea's interest in signing Callum Wilson ahead of the Blues' EFL Cup quarter-final with Bournemouth.
Maurizio Sarri's side are expected to be in the market for a new striker in January, with Alvaro Morata and Olivier Giroud having scored just six Premier League goals between them in 2018-19.
That is two fewer than Bournemouth striker Wilson, who has enjoyed a fine start to the campaign having also netted on his England debut last month.
