Lyon
striker Moussa Dembele is one of the forward options Chelsea are considering
trying to sign in January.
Dembele has scored 25 goals since moving to Ligue 1 from Celtic for £20m 18
months ago.
Olivier Giroud and Michy Batshuayi are likely to leave Chelsea during the
transfer window and Frank Lampard has been tracking Dembele for some time.
Sky Sports News has been told Lampard sees similarities between Dembele and
former Chelsea forward Didier Drogba.
Dembele enjoyed a successful spell with Celtic after joining the club from
Fulham in 2016 under former boss Brendan Rodgers.
The 23-year-old won two Scottish Premierships, two League Cups and two
Scottish Cups at Parkhead before a move to Lyon in August 2018.
He has scored 10 goals in 25 appearances for Lyon so far this season.
