Chelsea Prepares Opening Offer for Victor Osimhen Amidst Transfer Negotiations
Chelsea is gearing up to make an opening offer for Nigeria international Victor Osimhen, as reported by Gianluca Di Marzio. The Blues, who have been targeting Osimhen for some time, are eager to secure a new No. 9 despite having signed Marc Guiu from Barcelona.
Chelsea’s proposed deal is currently a loan arrangement, while Osimhen prefers a permanent move and seeks a premium salary. Additionally, Al-Ahli has a reported deal with Napoli for Osimhen’s services, but the striker has not yet consented to the move. Chelsea’s approach involves negotiating on their terms, which may require Osimhen to reconsider his wage demands if he wishes to join the Premier League side.
