Blues aces linked with move

Burnley boss Owen Coyle is targeting Chelsea players on loan as the Clarets look to strengthen their squad in January.

The Clarets boss built up a rapport with Luiz Felipe Scolari during the recent Carling Cup encounter and that may work in Burnley's favour during the next transfer window.

Coyle has indicated that he wants to add some new faces to his squad in January and the manager has hinted he could look to raid the Stamford Bridge squad.

Chelsea have a host of young stars not getting a look in at present, with Coyle stating: "They have some players that I would love to work with here. I'm always looking to build relationships."

Chelsea winger Scott Sinclair could be one option, having already enjoyed loan spells in the Championship with Plymouth, QPR and Crystal Palace.
