Chelsea have considered moves for Leicester striker Jamie Vardy

Chelsea director Marina Granovskaia is said to have accelerated the club's bid to sign at least three more players before the window shuts.
The Telegraph add that talks are ongoing for Vardy's team-mate Danny Drinkwater, along with Arsenal winger Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Everton midfielder Ross Barkley and Southampton right-back Cedric Soares.
Southampton's Virgil van Dijk is also a target for Chelsea, but the Blues will only make a move for the wantaway centre-half if Saints give them the green light.
Van Dijk has handed in a transfer request at St Mary's but Southampton have repeatedly denied the Dutchman is for sale.

Chelsea manager Conte revealed over the weekend that they are in the market for new signings.
He said after last night's 2-1 win over Tottenham: "The club is trying its best in the transfer market to improve our squad but I must be happy.
"We only have to think on the pitch and not to give answers to people.
"This moment is not easy for us but I am very happy to have this group of players because they showed me great commitment, desire and will to improve after a great season.
"We only need to focus on the pitch, outside does not matter for us."
