Former Manchester City defender Micah Richards believes the signing of a striker can push Chelsea to the next level.

The Blues have been very impressive since the arrival of German Thomas Tuchel as manager to replace Frank Lampard.

The west London club has one of the best defensive records in England since Tuchel's arrival.

Richards believes signing a top class striker such as Erling Haaland is what Chelsea need to go up a level.

"I think they've got absolutely everything," Richards told the BBC.

"They've sorted their defensive problems.

"The only thing to add that little bit of icing to the cake would be a striker. They've put Werner in there, they've put Havertz in there.

"It seems like they've not really cracked that offensive aspect of the game. I'm not going to speculate. If you put Haaland in this team, they'll be scary next season."
