Chelsea Eyes Late Striker Move For Aston Villa Striker in January Transfer Window
As per insights from reliable source Fabrizio Romano. Despite a relatively quiet winter window by their standards, the Blues are reportedly eyeing a new striker, possibly a less heralded one before making a significant move in the summer.
According to Romano, discussions within the club are considering Aston Villa’s Jhon Duran as a potential addition to their squad. The 20-year-old forward, who has shown promise when given opportunities this season, is keen on advancing his career.

However, the decision may hinge on the future of Armando Broja, as the 22-year-old Albanian is reportedly a target for West Ham United.
Duran, a young South American talent with eight senior international caps for Colombia, has made a mark since his Premier League debut a year ago. Scoring four goals and providing one assist in 35 games across all competitions, he could be a viable option for Chelsea’s striking needs, provided other transfer dynamics fall into place.
Chelsea still have Nicholas Jackson within the squad and the addition of Duran will further improve their firepower and goals scored.
