Chelsea are working hard on a deal for Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland.
That's according to Bundesliga pundit and former Middlesbrough striker Jan Aage Fjortoft.
The Sun reports Haaland is the number one priority for the Blues.
Chelsea are working 'intensely' to beat Manchester United, Real Madrid and Manchester City to the 20-year-old, it is said.
However, Haaland's wage demands are reportedly the biggest stumbling block in the deal.
It had already been noted that Borussia may demand as much as £172million for their star forward - yet Fjortoft insists the Prem giants are confident of working around that.
Instead, the Chelsea wage structure may end up being blown apart if the club is not careful in personal terms negotiations with the Norwegian's agent, Mino Raiola.
