£85m striker Chelsea reportedly want to sign now has 50 goals and assists combined this season

One striker who has reportedly been linked with a move to Chelsea has just racked up a seriously impressive amount of goals and assists for the season.

Sporting Lisbon star Viktor Gyokeres fired in a hat-trick last night to make it 36 for the season, adding to the 14 assists he has for the campaign in all competitions.

Chelsea are reportedly keen to bring in a new striker at the end of this season, with them not yet spending the big money on the one position many believe they already should have.

Gyokeres is certainly going to cost the big money if he is the one the club go for, with it being well documented up to now that he has a release clause worth around £85m.

In what has been his first real season at the top level, he has made an impact both domestically and in Europe.

Gyokeres up to 50 goals and assists

Last night saw him play a starring role again, scoring three times in a 6-1 win in Liga Portugal, and making it 50 goal involvements for the season.

The result helped them remain at the top of the table, as they approach the business end of the campaign.

It has been reported recently that the Blues were one of a number of top clubs to send scouts to watch a Sporting Lisbon game, with Gyokeres involved.

They will have been impressed with what they had seen though, with the Sweden international scoring a glorious goal in a huge game.

He is of course one of a number of names who the club have been reportedly interested in signing to play up front, with Victor Osimhen frequently mentioned as a target too.

However, there is a doubt that the financial situation involved with bringing him into the club would make them the favourites to bring him in when the season comes to an end.
