Chelsea is still keen on signing Victor Osimhen from Napoli this summer.
According to Ben Jacobs, Chelsea is in deadline talks with the 25-year-old striker regarding personal terms.
The Blues are waiting to secure an agreement with the player before submitting an offer to Napoli. Osimhen’s wage demands must fit their wage structure in order for the move to go through.
Meanwhile, Napoli is expecting an offer from Chelsea for the Nigerian international striker. It remains to be seen whether the Blues follow up on their interest with an official offer to sign the player. They need to sign a quality striker this summer.
Nicolas Jackson has not been able to live up to the expectations and the Blues need a more reliable goalscorer. Chelsea are reportedly keeping tabs on the likes of Ivan Toney as well. It seems that Chelsea will only proceed with a move for Osimhen if it makes financial sense for them.
