Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand has talked up Chelsea's chances of winning the Premier League.
The Blues are coming off last season's Champions League success, while they have been active in the transfer market.
Chelsea are set to finalize the signing of former striker Romelu Lukaku, with the Belgian joining for a £97.5 million fee from Inter Milan.
Speaking on the FIVE YouTube channel, Ferdinand said: "I've spoken to him recently and he's hungry man. He hasn't confirmed to me that he's signing for Chelsea but he just said this season, he's hungry.
"I just think this guy, a lot of greatness comes through having fuel and what I mean by that is having doubters and wanting to prove them wrong.
"He's got a whole stadium full at Manchester United who doubted him, all the fanbase at Old Trafford doubted him. A lot of people weren't too dissatisfied when he left.
"He will be sitting there and looking in the diary to see when that Old Trafford game is and he will want to unload.
"Romelu Lukaku guarantees you 20 goals, minimum. He guarantees you that. He's scored goals wherever he's been, he's an elite goalscorer, it's as simple as that.
"If he gets the chances that Timo Werner got last year, he bangs 30-35 goals, it's as simple as that. I think Werner will still be vital for them with how he runs off the ball and creates space.
"Chelsea have heavy artillery up front now, a real mix of talent, all different type of players, a real good blend. Lukaku going there makes them an absolute threat to win the title. They could win it."
