With Chelsea struggling in the Premier League, Frank Lampard could consider diving into the transfer market this month to bolster his squad and potentially save his own job.

The Blues boss hinted last week that there would likely be more movement outside the club than inside.

But, following their Premier League loss to Manchester City on Sunday, pressure is now on Lampard to overcome their current crisis which has seen them withdraw from the title race.

And with the transfer window now open, there are a lot of rumors about players joining and leaving this club.

Here are the latest Chelsea transfer rumors …

Haaland warning issued by Dortmund



Erling Haaland is wanted by Chelsea and Man Utd

Borussia Dortmund chief Hans-Joachim Watzke has warned that Erling Haaland is unlikely to leave the club in the near future.

Haaland has been linked with moves to Chelsea, Manchester United and Real Madrid in recent months, although he only joined Dortmund 12 months ago.

“I don’t think that will happen,” Watzke told Kicker.

“Erling and his advisor Mino Raiola know what they have in us.

“I can only advise him to do things like Robert Lewandowski. Haaland has given himself the time to become an absolute world class player in Dortmund. You won’t be able to do that in a year.

“Because it is clear that if Erling has to leave us at some point, then he will only go to an even bigger club, and a lot is not counted.

“If you join a club like – just for an example – Real Madrid, you have to be world class.”

Juventus manager Andrea Pirlo has confirmed that veteran Blues forward Olivier Giroud could be a potential target for him this month.

Giroud has found form in recent weeks but his future remains on the table, leading Pirlo to suggest he would be interested in the France international if he becomes available.

“It would be helpful!” Pirlo told DAZN.

“The window opens tomorrow, we have already discussed with the club what we want to do and if there are any opportunities.

“Maybe an attacker who can turn with our attackers.”

Frank Lampard bag the last



Frank Lampard is under enormous pressure as Chelsea manager

The pressure is mounting more than ever on Chelsea manager Lampard after the 3-1 loss to Manchester City on Sunday.

According to The Athletic, Lampard is now under serious pressure in the Stamford Bridge hot seat.

It is claimed the Blues bosses are ready to act if the poor results persist, with plans in place to find a replacement.

Lampard’s case has been made worse by tensions that have arisen from fringe members of his team who are not happy with the situation.

It is believed that a turnaround would be enough to save his job as they aim for a return to the top four.
