Chelsea could be set to launch a £15m bid for CSKA Moscow striker Seydou Doumbia, according to reports.

The 26-year-old Ivorian scored twice in CSKA's 2-1 win over Manchester City in the Champions League on Wednesday.

However, Doumbia's injury woes could see CSKA manager Leonid Slutsky accept an offer for the striker, who has scored 16 goals in 18 games this season, reports the Daily Star.

Doumbia joined the Russian side from Swiss outfit Young Boys in 2010 and was the Golden Boot winner in Russia in 2012.
