EPL: Chelsea renew interest in Osimhen …C0NTINUE READING HERE >>>
Chelsea remain interested in Napoli striker Victor Osimhen but will only proceed with a loan move, according to The Telegraph. Napoli president Aurelio de Laurentiis is firm on suitors paying Osimhen’s €130m (£110.8m) release clause.
Both Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain, however, are reluctant to meet this high price for the Super Eagles star. Chelsea were close to signing Samu Omorodion after agreeing on a €40m (£34.5m) deal with Atletico Madrid, but the move collapsed over personal terms disagreements.
With the Omorodion deal off the table, Chelsea has shifted their focus back to Osimhen, contingent on Napoli agreeing to an initial loan arrangement. This could pose a challenge, as Osimhen’s agent, Roberto Calenda, has dismissed the notion of the striker leaving Napoli for a reduced fee.
