Chelsea are preparing their opening offer for Nigeria international Victor Osimhen, according to reputed journalist Gianluca Di Marzio. Enzo Maresca’s side is actively searching for a new No. 9 this summer despite already signing Marc Guiu from Barcelona.
The club has had a long-standing interest in Osimhen and has been closely monitoring the Napoli forward. However, Chelsea is proposing a loan deal, while Osimhen prefers a permanent transfer. Additionally, the Super Eagles striker is reportedly seeking a high salary.
Osimhen is also attracting interest from Al-Ahli, who reportedly have a deal in place with Napoli for his transfer, although he has yet to agree to the move.
