Antonio Conte is after a target man. After missing out on Fernando Llorente in the summer, the club have since been linked with West Ham's Andy Carroll, and now Crouch.

And ahead of a potential loan bid being tabled, an old Tweet from Chelsea's official account has been doing the rounds.

It's from the 2010/11 league campaign, which reads: "Crouch is coming one. Route one here we come. #CFC"

Old Tweet

Yup, awkward.

Naturally, the Crouch-Chelsea rumours sent social media into overdrive. Here's some of the reaction from Twitter:
