Artem Dovbyk is ranked highly on CHELSEA’s transfer shortlist.
With 11 goals and four assists in La Liga thus far, the Ukrainian striker has led Girona’s unexpected ascent to the top of the league.
And Chelsea has taken notice of the 26-year-old due to his performance.
In recent weeks, Mauricio Pochettino has dispatched scouts to observe Dovbyk.
And the 6ft 2in striker’s physical profile has especially attracted the Blues boss.
With the Blues, Pochettino wants to give them more “weight”.
Furthermore, Dovbyk is now regarded as the best option.
Poch desires that he challenge Nicolas Jackson for the ninth position.
And since 22-year-old Jackson will be traveling with Senegal to the African Cup of Nations in the upcoming weeks, the sooner the better.
The departure of Armando Broja will further assist a move for Dovbyk.
Because the 22-year-old wants more playing time, he is on his way out of Stamford Bridge and will receive offers in January.
Dovbyk and Mykhailo Mudryk have the same agency.
In addition, the two have a tight friendship and communicate daily.
His contract expires in 2028, and a sale might bring in about 45 million euros, or £39 million.
