Transfer: Chelsea prioritize Osimhen signing for next summer

Chelsea have identified Victor Osimhen as the man to help bolster their attack.

The Blues have struggled to convert most of the chances they created this season.

The London club are in search of more experienced options to current forwards, Nicolas Jackson and Armando Broja.

According to The Telegraph, they are now set to prioritize a move for Osimhen.

Osimhen has yet to commit to a new deal at Napoli with a departure from the club next summer, which is now likely as the Nigerian will have a year left on his contract by then.

The 24-year-old returned to action for the Serie A champions on Saturday after missing their previous six games with a hamstring injury.

Brentford’s Ivan Toney and Santiago Gimenez, who plays in the Dutch League for Feyenoord, are the other strikers who have been linked with Chelsea.
