Chelsea among clubs linked with teenage strikers Kuki and Iseka

The Daily Mail say Chelsea are tracking teenage strikers Kuki and Aaron Iseka as they scour Europe for the next generation of stars.

Kuki, 16, is part of Malaga’s youth set-up but has featured for the first team in friendlies.

The Mail suggests the Blues, Liverpool and Manchester City are all monitoring the youngster, who plays for Spain at Under-17 level and reportedly has a £4.4m release clause in his contract.

The newspaper also believes Chelsea and City have their eyes on 17-year-old Iseka, who has already made 11 first-team appearances for the Belgian club, all as a substitute.

Reports in Belgium suggest he caught the eye after scoring nine goals in seven Uefa Youth League games this season, including a hat-trick against Porto earlier this month and two against Arsenal in October.

There is also further speculation over the future of supposed Chelsea targets Koke and Pablo Dybala.

The Daily Express claims the Blues are ready to offer £44m for Atletico Madrid midfielder Koke.

The Daily Star, meanwhile, picks up on reports in Italy which suggest Arsenal and Juventus are front-runners to sign Palermo striker Dybala.

Chelsea and Manchester City had also been linked with the Argentine, who has scored 12 goals in Serie A this term, but Palermo are reported to have received concrete offers from the Gunners and Juve.
