Chelsea 'want two more signings after Kai Havertz'

Chelsea manager Frank Lampard reportedly wants to make two more signings after securing the signature of German playmaker Kai Havertz.

The 21-year-old has penned a five-year deal at Stamford Bridge after arriving from Bayer Leverkusen in a deal believed to be worth £71m.

Chelsea have been extremely active in the transfer market and Havertz joins a star-studded list of summer arrivals which includes Timo Werner, Hakim Ziyech, Ben Chilwell, Thiago Silva and Malang Sarr.

Now, The Telegraph claims that Lampard has set his sights on two more signings with the 2020-21 Premier League season set to kick off next weekend.

The report suggests that Chelsea are looking to bolster their defence further, with Rennes goalkeeper Edouard Mendy and West Ham United midfielder Declan Rice on Lampard's wishlist.

Mendy would reportedly cost in the region of £30m, while West Ham are believed to value Rice in excess of £70m.
