Chelsea are tipped favorites to sign Lazio forward Felipe Anderson, according to reports in Italy.

Conte is looking for an ideal striking partner for Diego Costa as Borussia Dortmund’s Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is also linked with a move. However, Il Messaggero claims Chelsea are the ones looking to snap up the Brazilian, with his agent Giuliano Bertolucci a close colleague of Kia Joorabchian, who has worked on a number of recent purchases for the Stamford Bridge club.
