Borussia Dortmund will look to act quickly in the race to sign Krzysztof Piatek from Genoa by submitting a €35 million offer for the striker.
According to reports in Italy, the Bundesliga side are hoping to beat the likes of Barcelona, Chelsea and Liverpool to his signature.
Dortmund are now believed to be leading to the race to sign the player in the new year, with previous claims suggesting that Chelsea were at the front of the queue.
The Polish striker has emerged as one of the more in-demand players in the build-up to the January window following his breakthrough in Serie A this season.
Bayern Munich are also believed to hold an interest and envisage the striker as a long-term replacement to Robert Lewandowski.
While Chelsea are reportedly keen to strengthen in the final third, with Maurizio Sarri not content with either Olivier Giroud or Alvaro Morata at this stage.
