CHELSEA manager Mauricio Pochettino is eyeing four more signings that could lead to a further £200million splurge.
Pochettino has informed the Blues’ owner Todd Boehly he needs more reinforcements before the summer transfer window slams shut on September 1.
The West Londoners have already landed Christopher Nkunku, Axel Disasi, Nicolas Jackson, Robert Sanchez and Lesley Ugochukwu, which has already cost them in the region of £171m.
According to The Mail, Chelsea are now keeping tabs on Leeds’ Tyler Adams, Crystal Palace’s Michael Olise, Juventus’ Dusan Vlahovic and of course Brighton’s Moises Caicedo, who remains a top target.
Adams is expected to be the first deal to be completed in the coming days.
The midfielder has a release clause around £20m after the Whites’ relegation to the Championship.

Caicedo, on the other hand, will cost a staggering £105m to prise away from the South Coast but the Ecuador international wants to move to Stamford Bridge.
However, the Seagulls expect to have the midfielder available for their first Premier League game of the season on August 12 against Luton.
Palace are not keen to do business with Pochettino’s side for Olise after a rather inactive transfer window at Selhurst Park.
But the club has agreed personal terms with the France Under-21 international.
