Chelsea have been handed a major boost in their pursuit to sign Victor Osimhen from Napoli after the Serie A side lowered their demands.

According to The Times, Napoli sporting director Giovanni Manna has held talks with Chelsea officials in London, where the two parties have been negotiating a deal.

The report claimed that the Blues have been told a bid of £38.5m plus Romelu Lukaku and Cesare Casadei would be enough to persuade them to sell striker Osimhen this summer.

Napoli are trying to sign Lukaku but cannot afford the £40m asking price.

Instead, Antonio Conte’s side have proposed a complex swap deal involving the Belgium international and Casadei.

Osimhen is expected to move from Napoli this summer after he demanded to leave the club.

I envy Chelsea, Walahi

As a Liverpool fan, it's really depressing for one

We haven't signed a player yet my club keeps selling everyone

I hope other teams don't dick us like a slut under Slot

A QR code should be design for prospective clubs to scan in buying this guy.

He’s becoming stale on the market shelve.

His value is reducing. But which 2 players will be worth it, why not just ask for complete money?

Best of luck Osimhen

I wish Arsenal can buy Victor.

Chelsea isn't cool for him..

Best of luck Osimhen, but this chelsea move dey somehow.
Chelsea does not develop players.

Osimhen no go oooooo. E get why.

Osimhen is about to kill his glory

i dey play Football Manager and asking for two players part exchange deal plus cash is a bad way of doing player transfer business when you consider the leverage you have on the player as a club. If nobody will pay 110m$ for Oshiimen, las las Saudi Arabia go buy am. I don't need exchange, I need cold hard cash.

Chelsea go buy am plus all they got on ground before?

Over 35 players now! How them go gel self without doing back mistakes?

We go see how Sunday go be against Manchester City!

Maybe na hatrick for Harland again or na Nkunku and Madueke go shine!

Osimeh my guy., always making us proud...
Edo to the world, Esan oyeee egbe cu we re
omon

Primate Ayodele, aw va?

I fear for osimhen going to Chelsea, I hope he perform well though.

Is this really a necessary transfer for Chelsea. Why not just Lukaku + funds!

Anything to make the money stack up to the ceiling

That paragraph up there probably isn't up to 10 lines and it clearly mentions the two players. Why behave like a kid??

One thing is sure, if Chelsea wants him they will have him.


Congrats to Osimhen in advance

Stale bawo?

Someone that is trending at the international market place for months and weeks...

The guy made a huge mistake by g an extension to his contract. He should have left when the ovation was loud. Now his value is on the decline and age is not really on his side. Instead of having numerous suitors, only Chelsea are on his case.

His spat with Finidi hasn't helped his case also. I pray he gets signed

Fake news
Fabrizio no talk this one o

*Chelsea* The end of Victor Osimhen

Nobody really wants oshimhen and that's the bitter truth. I'm a Chelsea fan and knowing how these present or even past owners behave in the transfer market, they would have gotten him a long time ago. Take for instance Pedro neto. Oshimhen is simply too expensive and there are no guarantees that he will perform in the EPL. He's injury record is also not that good and he's demanding astronomical wages on top of all this. He and Napoli simply have to make the deal attractive for suitors or else he's stuck there. To make matters worse, conte doesn't want him but lukaku so I guess all parties would be staring each other down to see who blinks first.
