The German took over from Frank Lampard last month, and it appears that he is already planning ahead of the next transfer market.

Chelsea currently have the trio of Olivier Giroud, Tammy Abraham and Timo Werner as their striking options, and they have combined for 13 goals so far in the Premier League this term.

The Blues could do with a lethal finisher next season and going forward, though, and it will not come as a surprise if Bamford has indeed caught Tuchel’s eyes.
