Could Mario Gomez join Chelsea?

Just what are Chelsea going to do to get out of their current rut? Sign more players of course, with The Daily Express reporting that Mario Gomez is the latest individual being lined up on there seemingly limitless radar. To be fair, it is at least indicated that a move for the player would be as a replacement for Fernando Torres, nevertheless you can’t help feel that a little bit of continuity wouldn’t go a miss.

Romelu Lukaku is no doubt probably wondering when he will ever get a chance to shine at the Bridge and you can see why he is so keen and so loved up at West Brom, for its not exactly like Chelsea are showing the player any great level of love. At The Hawthorns the Belgium has looked very much the superstar he was billed to be following his arrival at Chelsea around 18 months ago, however this latest move would not exactly be a thumbs up to the youngster.

Gomez is undoubtedly a good player and one who might just be available, with Robert Lewandowski reported to be joining free scoring Mario Mandzukic at Bayern meaning his chances are likely to be limited. Nevertheless Chelsea might just be better off utilising what they already have available, although if Lukaku jumped up and punched them in the nose they probably wouldn’t notice.
