Chelsea in fresh assault on Fernando Llorente

The Telegraph is reporting that Chelsea are readying a new bid for Swansea City striker Fernando Llorente.

With Diego Costa out of the picture and Michy Batshuayi and Alvaro Morata struggling to make an impact, Antonio Conte is desperate to sign a high-quality centre forward in the coming days.

Considering that time is quickly running out, the Italian has reignited his interest in former player Fernando Llorente.

As a result, Chelsea are set to offer £15 million for the veteran striker, who managed to prove his worth in his maiden Premier League campaign, notching 15 goals in 33 league games.

Swansea City are not too keen on selling their prized asset, but they could change their minds when they complete the deal for Wilfried Bony.
