Chelsea Handed Big Transfer Boost As It’s Revealed That 86M Striker Target Is ‘Likely To Be Sold’

Victor Osimhen is “likely to be sold” by Napoli at the end of the season, according to 90min.com‘s Graeme Bailey and Sean Walsh.

The two reporters claim that the Nigerian international is a top transfer target for Chelsea and the Blues will now have a good chance of snapping up the forward next summer:

Considering the injury sustained by Armando Broja, though, you would think that Graham Potter’s side may well press ahead with an offer for a striker during the January transfer window.

It is unlikely that Napoli would be willing to let Osimhen leave next month as he is spearheading the Serie A club’s title challenge.

With that being the case, Chelsea are expected to put their interest on the back burner and look elsewhere. Juventus’s Dusan Vlahovic has been touted as an alternative in recent days, while they have also reportedly been offered Atletico Madrid pair Joao Felix and Matheus Cunha.
