Chelsea’s interest in making an offer for Victor Osimhen seems to be concrete and the PL club could make a move as soon as the Summer.

Osimhen, 24, is currently the Serie A top scorer with 16 goals in 17 appearances for Napoli.

The Forward has been the subject of interests from several top clubs in England and France, but Napoli aren’t going to be bullied, and are likely to set the opening bid for the player at €100million.

According to The Sun, Chelsea’s owners will go on another spending spree in the Summer and Osimhen is a prime target as the London club looks to end their goalscoring problem.

Victor Osimhen joined Napoli from LOSC Lille in the 2020 campaign and will have two years left on his current contract with the Naples club by the end of the season.

Napoli are on the verge of ending over three decades of their Scudetto drought, and the young Nigerian is inspiring the side’s title charge.
