3 players to replace Timo Werner confirm, as Barcelona offer Blues £270,000-a-week star in a swap deal for Chelsea midfielder

So far Timo Werner has struggled to score on a regular basis in England. The German joined the Blues from RB Leipzig ahead of this season but has not scored with the same regularity that saw him becoming a Bundesliga star.

Naturally, there are some reports suggesting that Werner could soon be on his way out of Stamford Bridge.

Should he end up leaving Chelsea, the following are candidates to replace him.

Sergio Aguero
The Argentine is set to leave Manchester City this summer. Aguero may now be 32-years-old but when fit, he is still a match-winner and world-class player.

He could still have a good 2-3 years of football left in him and with almost 300 Premier League appearances under his belt, he could bring in a wealth of experience to Stamford Bridge.

However, he is a Manchester City legend and so it remains to be seen if he will be willing to play for another club in England.

Erling Haaland
20-year-old Haaland is expected to go on and become a generational great whilst also challenging for the Ballon d’Or. Haaland averages nearly a goal per game for current club Borussia Dortmund and it is likely that he will end up leaving Dortmund at some point in the near future in order to play for an elite club.

Haaland could be the long-term solution to Chelsea’s number nine dilemma though he will not come cheap and the Blues will have to battle numerous other clubs for his services.

Harry Kane
At nearly 28-years-old, Kane is now at the prime of his career and will not get any better. Though a world-class player, he has yet to win a single major trophy and it does not look like Tottenham will win a piece of major silverware anytime soon.

Now could be the right time for Kane to join another club.

Barcelona ready to offer player in exchange for Chelsea star Jorginho

Barcelona are reportedly interested in a summer move for Chelsea midfielder Jorginho.

According to Spanish media outlet Sport via Metro UK, Barcelona are ready to offer Miralem Pjanic in exchange for Jorginho.

Pjanic joined Barcelona from Juventus last summer but has struggled to make an impact at the Spanish side.

Ronald Koeman is yet to be won over by Pjanic and the Bosnia international has found himself on the periphery of Barca’s squad, with youngsters Ilaix Moriba and Pedri overtaking him in the pecking order.

Chelsea tried to sign Pjanic last summer before his move to Barcelona and the Blues are reportedly interested in a move for the midfielder this summer.

Barca’s hierarchy greatly admire Jorginho and would demand for the Italian international if Chelsea make a move for Pjanic.
