Chelsea transfer round-up as Giroud suitor circles, Blues consider Bayern star

Thomas Tuchel will soon be allowed to put his mark on this Chelsea squad following his January arrival.

The German has performed impressively since taking over in west London and is likely to be backed in the transfer market.

He has been working with the squad assembled by Frank Lampard and will no doubt have his own ideas.

The lack of a prolific striker looks to be an issue, but that has been covered up by Chelsea's impressive defensive record.

Harry Kane and Erling Haaland have both been linked but Tuchel could yet see Giroud seek pastures new.

Here are the latest transfer rumours from Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea and PSG are both eyeing Barcelona midfielder Miralem Pjanic, reports Le10Sport .

The Bosnian made the move from Juventus in the summer but has been unable to establish himself in Spain.

As a resulted he could be moved on with Barcelona potentially making a change in the dugout.

Tuchel has a host of midfield options at his disposal so will need to decide how to shape his squad this summer.

Olivier Giroud is on AC Milan's radar with his contract winding down, reports Gazzetta dello Sport .

The Frenchman has struggled for game time at Stamford Bridge and may finally be heading out of west London.

Milan see Giroud as an ideal fit for their playing style and are keen to unite him with Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

The striker's contract will expire this summer.

Chelsea are still weighing up a move for Bayern Munich's Niklas Sule, according to Abendzeitung

The German centre-half has been in and out of the Bavarians starting XI but may find game time limited with Dayot Upamecano arriving.

Tuchel is still working with a team he inherited and has tended to play three centre-halves.

That said he may be looking to bring in his own players with Sule potentially one of them.
