Swansea striker Fernando Llorente a shock target for Chelsea

Swansea City striker Fernando Llorente is a shock target for Chelsea.

AS says Chelsea are lining up a surprise move for Llorente.

Blues head coach Antonio Conte wants to pair the 31-year-old with Diego Costa up front at Stamford Bridge.

The pair worked together at Juventus.

It's claimed he has already told Blues owner Roman Abramovich about his wish to sign the Swansea man after being disappointed with Michy Batshuayi since the 23-year-old summer arrival from Marseille.

Batshuayi is yet to start a Premier League game and has only scored one league goal this season.
