Osimhen Still On Chelsea Radar Despite Galatasaray Loan Move

Osimhen Still On Chelsea Radar Despite Galatasaray Loan Move Ibrahim Lateef

Chelsea are still big admirers of Super Eagles ace Victor Osimhen and may want to sign him in the winter or next summer transfer window, reports BSNSports.com.ng.

That is the view of transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano, who has spoken about the attacker’s situation. Osimhen is on loan at Galatasaray, but the deal can be cut short in the winter if necessary. The forward is still a Napoli player, but is said to have no future at that club given a breakdown in relationship with the ownership. Osimhen does have a release clause of around £70M, which Chelsea may find reasonable. However, at the age of 25, a move to Turkey may be seen as a backwards career move and may hurt his stock moving forward. After completing his deal on Wednesday, the Nigerian shared his delight on X App with a photo of himself and daughter. "Super excited to be part of the Galatasaray family! 🦁 I can’t wait to give my all and make the most of this new journey with such an amazing group and the fans,Ready to create unforgettable memories together! Let’s go! 💛❤️."
