Chelsea’s interest in signing another striker in the ongoing summer transfer window has been well documented.
Despite adding Liam Delap to their ranks from Ipswich Town, the Blues are intent on bringing in one more striker to increase the competition for places in the team.
The last few days have seen Chelsea add a new name to their transfer shortlist when it comes to a potential striker signing.
Randal Kolo Muani has been linked with the switch to Stamford Bridge, with Chelsea previously showing interest in signing the Frenchman.
While reports stated the Blues entered early talks over signing Kolo Muani, there is nothing advanced at all at this stage to suggest he will be on the move.
But that didn’t stop the Italian media from directly asking him about interest from Chelsea, and here’s what the player had to say.

What Kolo Muani had to say about potentially joining Chelsea
The striker told TuttoSport that he is actually more keen on staying at the Serie A club; however, right now, he is only focusing on the ongoing Club World Cup.
He said, “I don’t know anything about Chelsea. I’m trying to focus on the Club World Cup, which is a very fast competition. Once the tournament is over, we’ll see what happens on the market. If it were up to me, I’d stay here: I’m really happy at Juve, I feel very good.”
Kolo Muani’s words come as a potential setback for Chelsea in their quest for him, as they might have to turn their attention to other strikers in the ongoing transfer market.
