Rich West London Premier League club Chelsea is preparing a bid for Super Eagles and Napoli striker Victor Osimhen.

BSNSports.com.ng gathered from the Sun of the United Kingdom, that the Blues' new owners believe the Nigeria international could be the final piece in a puzzle having already spent more than £600m.

And they would be prepared to break the British transfer record of £107m they have just set for Enzo Fernandez to land Osimhen.

The striker, 24, is set to be one of the most in-demand players in the next transfer window.

Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain are among the clubs also in the hunt for Osimhen, whose 14 goals in 16 Serie A games have sent Napoli to the top of the table.

The Italian giants don't want to lose their star man but are confident of generating a high-stakes auction for a player who will have two years left on his contract in the summer.
