Where Chelsea Stand In Talks To Sign Victor Osimhen

Victor Osimhen is prioritizing a move to the Premier League this summer, with Chelsea leading the pursuit but facing competition with Paris Saint-Germain.

Media reports confirm that Chelsea remains in contact with Victor Osimhen’s agent over personal terms, and talks are progressing well.

Enzo Maresca’s side considers the Nigerian striker a primary target and is keen on including players in the deal to lower Napoli’s asking price, hoping to spend less than £45 million.

Chelsea and Napoli are negotiating a difference in valuation for Romelu Lukaku, currently around £8.4 million, which could reduce significantly in the coming days.

Napoli has also shown interest in Chelsea’s Italian midfielder Cesare Casadei as a possible replacement for Piotr Zielinski.

Chelsea aims to fund Victor Osimhen’s transfer by potentially selling Romelu Lukaku and Cesare Casadei.

Victor Osimhen has stated several times that he is a staunch supporter of Chelsea and that gives the London-based club hope to secure his signature this summer.
