Chelsea have reportedly added Joao Gomes to their shortlist of transfer targets. The Wolves midfielder is rumoured to be attracting attention ahead of the next transfer window, with insiders claiming preliminary talks could soon take place. While Chelsea and Wolves continue talks, no breakthrough has been reported. Atletico, Napoli and Crystal Palace reportedly may still have an interest, but currently the focus is on getting this deal across the line. So far this season, Chelsea are steady at both ends (1.71 goals scored per game, 1.23 goals conceded per game). The role for Joao Gomes would be to keep that balance while lifting performances across the pitch. Reports suggest Chelsea are monitoring Nathan Ake, Maxence Lacroix and Ben White whereas Wolves have not been associated with other players at this stage. Can't get enough Chelsea transfer rumours?
