# Chelsea make shock Mbaye Diagne offer

Chelsea have reportedly launched a shock €15 million offer to sign Kasimpasa striker Mbaye Diagne.

[According to reports in Turkey](https://www.google.com/search?q=diagne+kasimpasa&oq=Diagne+K&aqs=chrome.1.69i57j0l5.4546j1j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8), the Blues have entered the race to sign the striker this month.

It is claimed that Chelsea are willing to pay around €15 million for the striker, but Kasimpasa want a fee of €30 million.

The forward has been impressing in Turkey and as a result, is being linked with a number of clubs.

Fellow Premier League side Wolves have been linked in recent days, with Chelsea’s search for a striker taking them far and wide around Europe.

The 27-year-old has scored 20 goals in 17 league appearances this season and his performances in the Super Lig are clearly not going unnoticed.

Chelsea are being heavily linked with a move for Gonzalo Higuain, but a deal to bring the Argentinian is going to be tricky to complete, both because of his loan deal with Milan and the board’s unwillingness to spend big on a player over the age of 30.
