Chelsea is exploring the possibility of loaning Karim Benzema and former Liverpool forward Roberto Firmino as they grapple with scoring challenges in the ongoing season.
The recent hip injury to Christopher Nkunku has heightened the need for attacking reinforcements, and while Napoli’s Victor Osimhen remains a top target, financial constraints might make the move too costly this month.
As an alternative, Chelsea is considering loan moves for Benzema and Firmino, who are rumored to be contemplating returns to Europe from Saudi Arabia, with their respective situations at Al Ittihad raising uncertainties about their futures. This reflects Chelsea’s eagerness to address scoring issues and bolster their attacking options in the current campaign.
