Chelsea FC manager Thomas Tuchel has hinted that the club is looking for reinforcements before the transfer window closes at the end of the month.
Thomas Tuchel has hinted that he would like to make at least one signing before the January transfer deadline.
The Blues have been linked with a number of potential signings this month, but have yet to officially announce any new contracts as the mid-season transfer window closes.
Chelsea FC has had a difficult winter period in recent weeks, with their inconsistent form causing them to fall significantly behind Manchester City in the Premier League title race.
Prior to their match against Tottenham Hotspur at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, the south west London club had won just one of their previous five Premier League games.
According to the Evening Standard, the Blues' priority in the January transfer window remains a left wing-back, and their attempts to recall Emerson Palmieri from his loan spell at Lyon have so far been rejected by the French club.
According to the same publication, FC Barcelona star Ousmane Dembele is also on the south west London club's radar, but cover for the injured Ben Chilwell is the priority this month.
When asked about potential signings as the transfer window closes, Tuchel said, "I cannot say no to it." In addition, I am not convinced it is a clear yes.”
Chelsea FC are also looking to resolve the futures of some of their current players whose contracts expire in the summer.
Defenders Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rudiger could be on their way out of Stamford Bridge at the end of the season on free transfers unless they agree to new contract at the south west London club.
Meanwhile, Chelsea FC will return to FA Cup action in the fourth round against Plymouth Argyle at Stamford Bridge on Saturday 5 February. The Blues will then get back to Premier League action when they travel to Crystal Palace on 19 February.
