Chelsea make contact for Napoli’s Victor Osimhen | OneFootball

Premier League giants Chelsea have made first contact in an attempt to land Napoli striker Victor Osimhen.

The Nigerian has been heavily linked with a move to Paris Saint-Germain but it seems as if other parties also like him. Gianluca di Marzio has reported that while PSG’s interest in Osimhen is concrete and they can soon open talks with Napoli for the player, Chelsea are also keen.

They have made initial contact with the Partenopei and they tried to understand if they can execute a move worth €80 million or €90 million while including Romelu Lukaku and a player in the switch. Upcoming Napoli sporting director Giovanni Manna is interested in bringing Lukaku to Napoli and he tried to sign him at Juventus as well, but it remains to be seen if players want to be involved in a swap deal.

It has been previously reported that Osimhen has been in Paris to speak to the Parisien giants but the Premier League has been his dream.
