CHELSEA could see their striker issues solved by three former employees, reports suggest.<\/p>\n
Legendary Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho is said to be considering a swap deal that will involve Romelu Lukaku joining the Italian side permanently in exchange for Tammy Abraham.<\/p>\n

\n<\/p>\n
In Mourinho's first season at Roma, Abraham, 25, was an instant hit, scoring 27 goals in all competitions<\/span>.<\/p>\n However, the Englishman slowed down in his second season and has been plagued by injury after suffering an anterior cruciate ligament injury over the summer<\/span>, meaning he is yet to feature this season.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, since joining on a loan transfer, Lukaku, 30, has bagged five goals in as many games. <\/p>\n This has led Mourinho, 60, to consider a swap deal between the pair, according to Calciomercatoweb.<\/p>\n The report states the pair are valued in the same region so a straight swap is in the realm of possibility as opposed to a cash-plus player deal.<\/p>\n Chelsea's goalscoring exploits have been far from impressive so far this season.<\/p>\n They have scored just five Premier League goals despite a number of additions to the team, including Nicolas Jackson.<\/p>\n This poor return, and a shaky defence to boot, have seen Chelsea fall to 14th in the Premier League table following another defeat against Aston Villa.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n CASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERS<\/strong><\/p>\n As a result, they are already 13 points behind league leaders Manchester City and nine behind Tottenham and Arsenal in fourth and fifth respectively.<\/p>\n Chelsea have wanted to get Lukaku off their books for some time now, and Roma may offer a perfect solution due to Lukaku's own preference being for a permanent move to Italy.<\/p>\n It was reported in June that Chelsea considered a move for Abraham before he suffered his ACL injury.<\/p>\nREAD MORE ON CHELSEA<\/h2>\n
