'He will get you goals' - Mikel Obi on why Osimhen will be right for the EPL

Former Super Eagles captain, Mikel Obi has encouraged Victor Osimhen to move to the Premier League.

Mikel, who spent 11 years at Stamford Bridge believes Osimhen would be a good fit for the Stamford Bridge club.

Speaking on “The Obi One Podcast,” the former Chelsea defensive midfielder claimed Osimhen would score bags of goals in English football.

“I think when I look back at him a few years ago, i'd say no, but now, watching him last season and watching him this season, I would say definitely.

“He would come into the Premier League and slot right in. He will get you goals, he will run behind defenders, he will stretch the team.

"I think that’s what probably a lot of the teams now in the Premier League are looking for; a striker who wants to run behind the defenders because then it helps the team, and I hope he comes to Chelsea” Mikel said.
