Although central defence is an issue that urgently needs fixing, Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel also knows that scoring goals is a problem for his team.
To that end, he is considering signing more forwards this summer, with Mason Mount the only man to have hit double figures in the Premier League.
The head coach is unsure whether the club is capable of closing the gap to Manchester City and Liverpool given the current options at his disposal.
However, given that Romelu Lukaku, Kai Havertz and Timo Werner cost more than a combined £200 million between them, it is likely that there will need to be at least one outgoing first, if room is to be made for somebody capable of finding the net on a regular basis.
