Chelsea Handed Major Boost as Victor Osimhen Submits Transfer Request
Chelsea have received a significant breakthrough in their pursuit of Victor Osimhen, as the Napoli striker has reportedly submitted a formal transfer request ahead of the summer window.
The 26-year-old Nigerian international has long been on Chelsea’s radar, with the Blues identifying him as a top target to solve their striker issues. Now, with Osimhen expressing his desire to leave Napoli, the path appears clearer for the Premier League side to make a decisive move.
Sources close to the player suggest that Osimhen is eager for a new challenge, and with Chelsea actively seeking to bolster their attacking options under manager Enzo Maresca, the timing could not be better. Napoli, aware of the striker’s intentions, are said to be open to negotiations, provided their valuation—believed to be close to his €130 million release clause—is met.
While other European giants like PSG and Manchester United have also been linked, Chelsea are reportedly ready to go all-in, with owner Todd Boehly prepared to sanction a blockbuster deal to land the prolific forward.
Osimhen’s latest move has undoubtedly put Chelsea in the driving seat—and fans at Stamford Bridge will be watching closely as talks heat up in the coming weeks
