31 Goals 5 Assists Arsenal Target Set To Join Chelsea As Doubt Grows On Diego Costa’s Fitness

Chelsea are reportedly keeping an eye on last season’s Ligue 1 top scorer Alexandre Lacazette following unimpressive performances from Diego Costa and Loic Remy.
Costa was Chelsea’s top scorer last season with 20 goals but the Spanish international is far from reaching his milestone of last season following his unimpressive performances in the league.
Costa has scored just twice in the league so far and he seems more interested in starting fights rather than bagging goals.
Reports suggests that Chelsea are considering selling Costa due to him underperforming this season and Lacazette is one of the players on their shortlist to come in as a replacement for Costa.
Although Lacazette hasn’t been at his best this season, he bagged a hat-trick against Saint-Etienne before the start of the international break.
Chelsea are also rumored to be in the market for Javier Hernandez as well as Aleix Texieria, with the Blues keen on bolstering their attacking options in January in a bid to turn their torrid season around.
The Blues are just 3 points above the relegation zone and a loss to Norwich in their next premier league fixture could see them drop down into the relegation zone.
