Chelsea have been offered the chance to sign Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar this summer, according to reports.

Thomas Tuchel is set to be backed with up to six signings this summer as defensive and attacking reinforcements are eyed for Chelsea's rebuild.

Attacking signings are on the agenda with a deal to sign Raheem Sterling from Manchester City progressing, with a £45 million transfer hoped to be completed this week prior to Chelsea's pre-season tour of the United States.

Other names including Raphinha and Ousmane Dembele are of interest, while Manchester United and PSG stars Ronaldo and Neymar have both been linked with switches to Stamford Bridge.

Ronaldo wants to leave Man United this summer to continue playing at the highest level and in the Champions League after United missed out of qualification last season, settling for a Europa League place.

Meanwhile in France, PSG are open to letting Neymar leave and Chelsea have been speculated as a club who could afford to sign the Brazilian.

Now it has been reported by Nizaar Kinsella of the Standard, that the Blues have been offered the chance to sign both through intermediaries.

Todd Boehly has already met with Ronaldo's agent, Jorge Mendes, with the possibility of signing Ronaldo discussed among other topics in the meeting.

Ronaldo didn't turn up to pre-season on Monday at Carrington due to 'family reasons', a reason United have accepted.

Neymar is claimed to be open to making a switch to the Premier League this summer.

However, it is unclear if Chelsea would be prepared to match his staggering reported wages of £606,000-a-week, as well as his transfer fee if a move was permanent.

Thomas Tuchel is reported to be reluctant to sign a superstar this summer.

But with the temptation and opportunity available of signing a blockbuster player, will it be too much to resist for the Chelsea head coach and the new owners.

As per Nizaar Kinsella, he is keen to avoid a repeat of Romelu Lukaku's disaster club-record return last summer which has seen him return to Inter Milan on loan for the 2022/23 season.

With Raphinha holding out for Barcelona and the futures of Hakim Ziyech, Christian Pulisic and Timo Werner uncertain, Chelsea may want another attacker.

Tuchel has been very complimentary of both Neymar and Ronaldo in the past, but whether he would want to work with Neymar again, or Ronaldo for the first time, remains to be seen.

The option is there, it's now a case of whether Chelsea believe a move is worth it and if Tuchel believes they would fit into his plans.
