EPL: Chelsea to buy two Everton players after Lampard’s sack

Chelsea are looking to capitalize on the chaos at Everton with a new approach for Anthony Gordon and Amadou Onana, the UK Telegraph reports.

The Blues were keen on signing Gordon last summer, but a move didn’t materialize and the winger ended up staying at Goodison Park.

Chelsea have already been busy in the transfer market, but want to pounce on the uncertainty their Premier League rivals are facing.

The disarray at Everton has seen Frank Lampard lose his job.

Lampard was sacked on Monday following a poor run of results.

Chelsea want to strike a a deal for Gordon that will potentially involve him being loaned back to Everton for the remainder of the season.

Onana, meanwhile, only joined Everton in the summer from Lille but has impressed in spells and could provide another way for Everton to alleviate the Financial Fair Play issues that burden them
