A blow to London rivals, the 24-year-old target has decided to join Chelsea.

According to reports, Napoli forward Victor Osimhen is interested in joining Chelsea.

Numerous Premier League clubs have been linked to the 24-year-old striker, but it is reported that he has decided to join the London club within the next few months.

An announcement from Calciomercato.Additionally, Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly very interested in the striker; however, whether they are successful in changing his mind is unknown.

It appears that the Nigerian international forward has discussed a possible transfer with Chelsea legend Didier Drogba, and the Blues are his current top choice.

Chelsea are in dire need of offensive reinforcements, and they could be transformed by acquiring a world-class striker such as him. Osimhen contributed to Napoli’s league championship with 31 goals during the previous campaign. The club could become a legitimate contender if he were to acquire Chelsea. In contrast, Napoli are not inclined to sell him for a low price, so Chelsea will have to spend an absolute fortune to acquire him.

Since acquiring Chelsea, the Blues have been extremely active in the transformer market, and it is uncertain whether Todd Boehly is willing to finance another high-priced acquisition to strengthen the club’s attack.

There is no reason why the Blues, who currently possess a formidable roster, cannot contend for major trophies with the acquisition of a couple of quality players. Priority number one for them should be the acquisition of a proven goalscorer, and Osimhen is without a doubt one of the finest in the world in that capacity.
