The January transfer window is less than a month away, and players will be looking to switch clubs as soon as the World Cup concludes. Several clubs will be looking to sign their respective transfer targets, with Chelsea being one of them.
Chelsea has a significant striker shortage, exacerbated by the recent injury to young striker Armando Broja. The Blues and Graham Potter could use some new additions to that position.
Having said that, Chelsea could sign any of the strikers on this list during the January transfer window. They are as follows:
1. Youssoufa Moukoko
The talented Borussia Dortmund attacker has been linked with Chelsea, and he could be signed depending on negotiations between the Blues and the German club. Moukoko is one of Germany's most promising young players, and he is the ideal replacement for Broja.
2. Mohammed Kudus
The talented Ghanaian and Ajax attacker has been linked with a number of clubs in Europe, including Chelsea. With Broja out, Graham Potter and Chelsea could use an attacking talent like Kudus in their current attack, which is lacking in goals and creativity.
3. Joao Felix
The talented young Portuguese attacker appears to want to leave Atletico Madrid, and that possibility has linked him to a number of clubs, including, predictably, Chelsea. Felix is a versatile forward who can play anywhere on the field. If Chelsea does not get Moukoko or Kudus, Felix is a viable option to consider because his ability is undeniable.

Arsenal determined to reach Mudryk deal after past Brentford agreement
Arsenal's pursuit of Shakhtar Donetsk attacker Mykhaylo Mudryk is unabated.
According to David Ornstein of The Athletic, the Gunners are prioritizing Mudryk, but it will ultimately come down to price.
On Monday, he said in his weekly column: "Their priority target is Shakhtar Donetsk winger Mykhaylo Mudryk, and sources close to the situation believe there is a good chance it will happen, though nothing has been agreed upon.
"Shakhtar's asking price for the highly coveted Ukraine international is €100 million (£85.9 million, $105.3 million), but interested parties are aware that a lower fee would be considered acceptable."Arsenal are among the clubs in contact with both Shakhtar and Mudryk's representatives, with the 21-year-old known to be keen on a move to the Premier League and determined to make the Emirates Stadium his final destination."
"When he was on Arsenal's radar last summer, Brentford had a €25 million deal in place, and his stock has since risen." It will ultimately come down to price, and while the north London club may have other options, Mudryk is their priority."
