Chelsea are planning a move for Strasbourg striker Joaquin Panichelli at the end of the campaign, according to Football Transfers.

The 23-year-old signed for the French outfit from Alaves last summer, and he has been a revelation in the early weeks of the Ligue 1 season.

In the injury absence of Emanuel Emegha, Panichelli has rose to the occasion, scoring nine goals from 10 games in the French top tier.

His form has caught the eye of elite European clubs, but reports claim that Chelsea have a clear advantage in the player’s pursuit.

Blue Co obviously own both Chelsea and Strasbourg. They are prepared to utilise the relationship to bring the Argentine to Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea have already reached a pre-agreement to land Emegha from the Ligue 1 side. Panichelli could follow his teammate to the Blues.

Strasbourg have had a fantastic start to the Ligue 1 campaign and they are presently fourth in the table, only two points behind leaders PSG.
