Chelsea told to sign £120m Jadon Sancho

Former Chelsea man Frank Sinclair has told Frank Lampard to 'go and get' Borussia Dortmund winger Jadon Sancho during the January transfer window.

The Blues have seen their transfer ban lifted by the Court of Arbitration for Sport, meaning that they will now be able to bring in new players during the next window, which opens in just over one week.

Sancho has been heavily linked with a move to Stamford Bridge, but it is reported that it will cost the Blues around £120 million to bring the England international to the club.

But Sinclair has a clear message for Lampard over a move for the winger.

"Frank, go and get him! Go and get him, Frank," he said on Stadium Astro . "There’s a link with Chelsea at the moment, so we need to get him. I think he’s quality.

"I’d like to see him at Chelsea. He has also admitted to being a fan. That’s another one that makes sense, coming back to England."

Another player who has been linked with a January move to Chelsea is fellow England international Ben Chilwell, and he is another player that Sinclair would like to see arrive at Stamford Bridge.

"For me the obvious player is Ben Chilwell, although Brendan Rodgers won’t want to lose him," he told the Daily Star .

"Obviously Frank chopped and changed at left-back. In recent games Cesar Azpilicueta has played out there, which he did in a title winning side for Chelsea.

"But his strengths are at right-back and the left-back issues clearly need resolving. Chilwell is a full international and in the top two or three English full backs in the country."

However. Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers has insisted that no players will leave the King Power Stadium during the January transfer window.
