Chelsea are reportedly interested in West Ham United star, Mohammed Kudus, despite agreeing deals to sign Jamie Gittens and Joao Pedro.
Ahead of the new season, the Blues, who are currently on Club World Cup duty, have already been busy in the transfer market with Liam Delap, Estevao, Dario Essugo, Kendry Paez, and Mamadou Sarr all joining this summer.
But Chelsea are not done there with two more signings set to join in the coming days after the Blues agreed a deal ‘worth up to £60m’ with Brighton for Pedro.
The 23-year-old has agreed terms with Chelsea on a seven-year deal and will fly to the United States to have a medical in view to joining Maresca’s squad at the Club World Cup.
And it appears Chelsea have set their sights on another attacker amid agreeing deals for Gittens and João Pedro.
According to Sky Sports News, the Premier League side are still interested in Mohammed Kudus.

The West Ham United star is wanted by Saudi Pro League sides, but he does not want to move to Saudi Arabia at this stage of his career.
Softfootball understands that Tottenham Hotspur are keeping a tabs on him as well. The Ghanaian international joined West Ham from Ajax for £35 million in the summer of 2023 and impressed in his debut season in England.
He scored 14 goals across all competitions in the 2023/24 campaign but bagged just five goals last season.
According to the Mail Online, Chelsea have not ruled out a potential move for Kudus this summer. The report claims that the Blues would likely need to sell a few players before swooping in for the winger.
It’s said that Chelsea have considered the possibility of sending players to West Ham in return, but the east Londoners are not interested in the potential trades that have been proposed thus far.
West Ham would reportedly be willing to listen to ‘more reasonable offers’ for their winger. Manchester United, Newcastle and Tottenham have also shown an interest in Kudus.
Softfootball reported earlier that Man United was eyeing Kudus transfer amid Chelsea interest.
While United are weighing up a move for Mohammed Kudus, several Premier League clubs are also monitoring the situation with the attacker at West Ham.
