3) Christian Benteke (Aston Villa)
One of the most in-demand strikers on the market this summer, Christian Benteke of Aston Villa is another forward player said to be on Chelsea’s radar.
Pros: Big, strong, powerful, Benteke has all the hallmarks to be an ideal replacement for Costa up front. Also available due to having a £32.5m release clause in his contract. Likely to want to leave struggling Villa for a bigger club.
Cons: Slightly injury prone and not yet proven at a bigger club with more expectation. Struggled to deal with the pressure of the FA Cup final, looking anonymous against Arsenal last week.
