CHELSEA are ready to splash out £125million to land three main transfer targets.
Blues boss Antonio Conte wants to wrap up the deals to land Tiemoue Bakayoko, Antonio Rudiger and Alex Sandro ahead of their Premier League title defence.
Chelsea are thought to be close to completing the deal to land Monaco's midfielder powerhouse Bakayoko in a £35m deal.
And he is set to be followed through the door by Germany international defender Rudiger who will sign for £30m from Roma.
Conte could make it a hat-trick of deals when they step up their chase to land Juventus full-back Sandro with a £60m offer at the beginning of next week according
There is growing optimism around the English champions that they can lure Sandro to the club this summer if the price is right.
If they can push through a deal, Sandro will become Chelsea's most expensive player ever eclipsing the £50m they paid Liverpool for Fernando Torres in 2011.
The 26-year-old left-back has three years left on his current contract with the Old Lady and Juventus are ready to offer him a new deal to ward off the interest from Chelsea.
