Twitter: SKY SOURCES: @ChelseaFC interested in signing @BurnleyOfficial striker Ashley Barnes. #SSN https://t.co/T5SqVfqwq8 (@SkySportsNews)
The current Premier League champions are searching for a target man this month to provide competition for Alvaro Morata.
Barnes appears to have been identified as a back-up plan in case a deal to sign Edin Dzeko falls through.
The Blues are reportedly closing in on a deal to sign Dzeko from Roma this month but have also been linked to the likes of Andy Carroll and Peter Crouch.
Antonio Conte is known to be searching for a physical striker to ease the pressure off of the out-of-form Morata.
The Burnley striker has scored three times in the Premier League this season in just eight starts as Sean Dyche’s men enjoy a strong campaign.
Barnes has been an unpopular figure at Stamford Bridge following his clash with Nemanja Matic during Jose Mourinho’s time at the club.
