We’ve ruled out a Victor Osimhen switch to Chelsea many times now, but the rumours just won’t go away, and eventually we’re going to have to start taking them seriously again.
It seems like no other teams are seriously interested, and Napoli want to sell. That puts us right back in the frame, despite everything.
Caughtoffside claim to have exclusive information that “new contacts over Osimhen could take place soon,” with Chelsea hoping to offset the major cash cost by including unwanted assets Cesare Casadei and Romelu Lukaku.
We’ve heard many times that our priorities for this summer are a right winger and a striker. We’ve so far made little progress on either front, but we’ve made some bargain signings to fill other gaps, leaving us plenty of budget for a marquee move up top. If we decide that we can get away with our current crop of wingers (and there’s certainly enough of them), an elite striker like Osimhen could become afford able even on a limited budget like we’re working with.
An impossible deal becomes possible again
While we’ve ruled out a deal many times, nothing is impossible, and while offering two players in a swap deal feels hopeful, one can’t rule it out.
After holding on to Osimhen for many years, it looks like Napoli have decided to cash in now and move on to a new era under Antonio Conte. If we can offer £80m (not impossible given we’ve not made any other signings this summer), plus Lukaku and Casadei valued at something like £60m between them, that’s a good deal for Napoli.
The question then will be his wages. But if he’s willing to fit into our wage structure and take a heavily incentivised deal, then that can happen too.
It high time the striking position must be sorted, so soon the window period will end while the club is still pondering
I agree with you guys who just made comments, Chelsea should prioritize their efforts and act first to lure osihmen because it’s that same position that lead us to finish outside the top four zone last season. We don’t mind Chelsea offloading other fringe players to buy a standard top striker either.
Nothing sure in life than death, everything is trial for me osimhen is not bad,he will surely try his best for Chelsea
Chelsea should go on with deal the team need front to be bite
It will be great if chelsea bring osimhen to Stamford bridge this Summer,naija fans and other Africa in general will become part of chelsea family as well.see U wearing blue jersey this season ♥️U
