Chelsea are virtually out of the title race because Manchester City have been utterly brilliant and the Blues need to strengthen their squad in the upcoming winter transfer window.
Not to forget, the Stamford Bridge club will collide against Barcelona in the Round of 16 stage of the Champions League and they need reinforcements to battle the Catalan giants.
At the weekend, we covered a report (via Mirror) claiming that Arsenal are leading the race to sign £30million rated ($40million) Jamaican star Leon Bailey from Bayer Leverkusen.

More recently, Express have come up with an exclusive report and claimed that Chelsea are ready to lure the Bundesliga star and will go head to head with Arsenal to hire his services.
The British source have claimed that Antonio Conte wants to strengthen his attacking department and Leon’s ability to score goals on regular basis from out wide is a key factor why the Blues want him.
Bailey is a versatile winger, who can be deployed at either flank and can operate effectively with both feet.
This season, so far, in 16 games for the German club, he has scored 8 goals and provided 4 assists. In your opinion, is Leon good enough to improve Chelsea’s attack?

Definitely. That department is among those that need both numbers and quality. CFC has no options; strengthening in the upcoming Jan window is a must!

Chelsea should sell the likes of William and pedro to make room for Bailey.
