There is news about Victor Osimhen that has started to speculate around the world. The news is that Chelsea are back in the race to sign the Nigerian in this summer transfer window.
Last year, we saw Chelsea make many big signings; they have signed many big youngsters like Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo.
Both of these signings were above 100 million, which is a very big number, especially when you are signing two players who are very young and are midfielders. In the history of football, we have seen many big transfers, but all those transfers were related to the strikers; no other clubs have paid this much money to sign the midfielder who is very young and does not have that experience.
But Chelsea have done it in the last season, and the season before last season they also signed a big signing, where they signed Romelu Lukaku, and the season before that too they have done big signings. But they have not made any big signings this season yet, and it is not like Chelsea to not make a big signing in a season or to bring a star to the club.
Will Chelsea buy a new striker?
Till now the biggest signing in terms of money that Chelsea did is Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, and he might be the replacement that the Blues signed to replace Conor Gallagher in this transfer window.
There are several reports that claim Chelsea are looking to sign Victor Osimhen in this summer transfer window; he was their target till last season, but in this news transfer is getting delayed. The Blues are not to sign the player, according to some reports, because of the arrival of the new coach, Enzo Maresca.
But this might change; according to some reports, Chelsea are again interested in signing the striker, as they think he is the only right option for the team at this point in time. The team is currently struggling in the striking department, and a striker like Victor Osimhen can be very good for the club. The strikers that the Blues have were unable to prove themselves in the preseason, and now they are thinking that signing a new striker can help the club in the attacking area.
There are other rumors that are going around that Victor Osimhen is ready to compete with Chelsea rival Manchester City’s star striker, Erling Haaland, in this season if he signs for Chelsea in this summer transfer window.
It has been days now where the Blues are heavily link to signing the Napoli Striker in this summer transfer window. Napoli also wants to sell the player in this transfer window as soon as possible, as the Italian Giants want to bring Romelu Lukaku to the club in this transfer window only.
Chelsea are pushing hard for a striker.
The Nigerian striker joined the Italian club in 2020 from Lille; till now he has played 133 games for Napoli and have scored 76 goals so far. This summer is extremely good for a striker who is so young and has not yet reached his full potential. Moving to a club like Chelsea can definitely help the striker to learn more and improve himself.
In the last four years, since he joined Napoli, he has linked with many clubs, and every year news comes that the player might be sell but the transfer never happened, but in this season it is different; not only the player but also the club wants to sell the striker, and the player is not happy with the club and wants to join another club.
Both the player and the club are pushing hard for the transfer; there has not been any progress, but the player might be sell in this transfer window.
On the other side, Chelsea are now also looking to push hard to sign a new striker, as they need a striker who can play every game and can score in every game. In the last two seasons, no striker has been able to shine till now, but this might change if they sign the Nigerian in this transfer window.
