Chelsea have been reportedly given the greenlight to sign one of Frank Lampard’s key transfer targets.

According to French media outlet L’Equipe, French club Lyon will listen to offers for striker Moussa Dembele in the upcoming transfer window.

Dembele, who is also wanted by Manchester United, has registered 42 goals and provided 13 assists in 88 appearances for Lyon since his arrival from Celtic.

Chelsea pushed for the signing of the striker in January but Lyon were reluctant to let the Frenchman leave halfway through the season.

The Blues will have to fork out around £60 million to sign Dembele, which would make him the second most expensive signing in Chelsea’s history.
