Chelsea are considering a different route to sign Erling Haaland.
Manchester City, Manchester United, Real Madrid and PSG have all shown an interest in the Norway international.
But with Borussia Dortmund demanding at least £150m to sell their prized asset, teams have started to look elsewhere.
Not Chelsea, however, as astute transfer chief Marina Granovskaia has begun exploring how else they can entice Dortmund to sell.
The Expressclaims Granovskaia is organising a player-plus-cash deal to sign Haaland.
The current Champions League holders have asked Dortmund if they would be interested in acquiring Tammy Abraham.
The Blues striker is seeking an exit from Stamford Bridge after falling down the pecking order under Thomas Tuchel.
It is unclear how much the inclusion of Abraham would decrease Dortmund's cash demands for Haaland.
However, Chelsea would be willing to sell Abraham to the German club irrespective of a deal for Haaland.
