Transfer: Chelsea receive boost to sign Victor Osimhen from Napoli

Victor Osimhen

Chelsea have received a boost in their pursuit of Victor Osimhen.

Corriere Dello Sport reports that Osimhen’s contract renewal talks with the Serie A champions have stalled over a release clause.

Napoli had added a whopping £173 million release clause to the player’s new contract offer in order to tie him down at the club.

However, Osimhen, who clearly wants to stay at the club, wants the release clause to be set at £100 million.

This has made the talks come to a standstill, opening the door for his suitors to take advantage.

Chelsea want a new No. 9 this summer and have their eyes on the 24-year-old.

Manchester United are also interested in the Nigerian.
