Chelsea are planning an offer for Aston Villa striker Ollie Watkins.

The Blues are short of a centre-forward with the summer market shut and Watkins is now under consideration.

On the Si Phillips Talks Chelsea podcast, Phillips said: “Dusan Vlahovic was obviously looked at in the summer.

“He's still there. Jonathan David from Lille. And the last one is Ollie Watkins from Aston Villa.

“Those are the names that I've been given this week that Chelsea are considering for the January window."
