Chelsea are being linked with two strikers on the January transfer window’s deadline day. One of them is Torino ace Andrea Belotti, the other is Celtic star Moussa Dembele.
The rumors linking the latter player with the Blues was sent into overdrive after an image of the 20-year-old on board to a flight headed for London emerged. Sky Sports also claim that the London giants are interested in the Celtic forward.
The Hoops, however, claim that their influential goalscorer is on his way to the English capital for medical reasons only. The club state (as per Sky Sports) that he is set to undergo a knee scan in London.

Interest in the French forward comes as little surprise. Since joining the Scottish heavyweights last summer after his contract with Fulham ended, he has notched up 20 goals.
Brendan Rodgers’ side are unwilling to let Dembele go midway through the season. As a result, his price tag has been set at a staggering £40m in order to kill off interest.
