Chelsea plotting January move for Lyon's Alexandre Lacazette?

Chelsea are reportedly considering a move for Lyon frontman Alexandre Lacazette when the transfer window re-opens in January.

The current Premier League champions have found the defence of their title difficult in the early stages of the new season, after a summer that saw Jose Mourinho bring in a limited number of new recruits.

According to The Express, the Stamford Bridge club could be looking at Lacazette as an option to deliver more goals in the second half of the season.

Lacazette was the top scorer in Ligue 1 last campaign with 27 goals in the French top flight.
