Chelsea news: Stunning £55 million offer submitted to land world class striker
Saudi Pro League club Al Ahli have submitted an initial £55m bid to Napoli for Victor Osimhen, despite the many reports which have claimed that Chelsea are in talks over a deal for the striker.
The club are not willing to meet his massive £500,000-a-week wages demands and that has allowed clubs from the middle east to show an interest in the big Nigerian star.
It is understood the Italian club are willing to let the Nigerian go but Osimhen is not thought to be overly keen at this stage to move to the Saudi Pro League, but According to Fabrizio Romano, the striker will consider his options ahead of Friday’s deadline day.
Al Ahli have submitted an initial £55m bid to Napoli for the big striker – a player that they are keen to offload.
Reporter Iomie Stanley has had his say on the potential deal for Osimhen, he said: ”If he wants a real challenge, test himself in the best League in world football and see if he can handle the pressure of playing in the England top-flight, a move to Chelsea is one he should make.
‘Napoli wants to get rid of the man, Osimhen wants to leave, CHELSEA are interested, but the Nigerian star is asking for crazy money, right now he is playing himself out of options and could end up staying and sitting on the bench.’
‘But we cant see this deal happening unless there is come compromise from the player, Napoli and even Chelsea – it is a complicated deal.’
