Chelsea are making a bold move in the transfer market as they prepare to submit their first official offer for Napoli’s star striker Victor Osimhen. The London club are keen to beat Paris Saint-Germain to the punch in securing the Nigerian international’s services.
According to reports from Gianluca Di Marzio, Chelsea are ready to present a formal bid to both Napoli and Osimhen’s representatives in the coming hours. This swift action demonstrates the Blues’ determination to strengthen their attacking options for the upcoming season.
The potential transfer is expected to involve complex negotiations, as finding an agreement that satisfies all three parties – Chelsea, Napoli, and Osimhen – will be crucial. Chelsea’s management is hopeful that their offer will be enticing enough to initiate serious discussions.
It’s worth noting that Osimhen has attracted interest from other clubs as well. Saudi Arabian side Al Ahli has already shown strong interest in the striker, reportedly tabling an offer of around €70 million euros. This existing bid could potentially influence the negotiations between Chelsea and Napoli.
Osimhen’s impressive performances for Napoli have made him one of the most sought-after strikers in world football. His potential move to Chelsea could significantly bolster the Premier League club’s attacking prowess and their ambitions for domestic and European success.
