Good News : Chelsea move for a possible over £100 million Victor Osimhen deal
Chelsea move for a possible over £100 million transfer deal for Napoli striker Victor Osimhen
Aurelio De Laurentiis says Victor Osimhen’s contract situation is “not up for discussion” amid the latest Chelsea speculation.
CHELSEA have spent some crazy money over the last couple of transfer windows and brought players to the club that they hoped would get the side competing for the big titles.
They even have one of the best managers in the game and a man that has been tipped to be a real success at Stamford Bridge – but their start to the new season has brought up some worrying displays, and questioned the clubs transfer policy.
That has led to reports in the media that Chelsea could try and make a move for Osimhen in the January window, a man that they wanted to sign in the summer window and a striker that is easily regarded as one of the best in the game.
He has been in contract talks with Napoli for quite some time now, but has been unable to agree a new contract as the Italians are playing hard-ball and do not want to offer him the kind of deal that he feels he fully deserves.
After Napoli suffered a 3-2 defeat to Real Madrid in the Champions League on Tuesday, the club’s president dismissed fears that Osimhen could reject a new contract at the club and instead look to leave.
“Victor is a player who makes a team on his own, it’s not up for discussion,” De Laurentiis said to El Chiringuito. “There is no problem with the renewal, everyone in Napoli is happy.”
