Star worth £100 million wants to join Chelsea in January
Glen Johnson believes that Victor Osimhen wants to join CHELSEA in the January transfer window.
Despite all the quality that has been signed – we failed to sign an elite striker that has the ability to come in and score 25-goals a season, and that has led to reports that Osimhen is a man that is wanted.
The big Napoli star is regarded as one of the finest strikers in the game right now and is a player that the board have been linked with for many seasons, but have been able to get a deal done as the Italians have been asking for crazy money.
But amid all the speculation that we will be heading back into that transfer window in January to sign Osimhen, Johnson has now opened up and claimed that the Nigerian does want to join us, despite their poor start to the season.
Speaking to GG Recon, the former defender said: “Regardless of what’s happening at Napoli, I believe Victor would want to join Chelsea anyway.
“However, Victor will be kicking himself that this move could happen when CHELSEA are currently in transition. Of course they’re a big team and they’re going to bounce back eventually.
“But as long as Victor is willing to wait 18 months or so for that to happen, then I’m sure he’d still want to sign for them in January. If Napoli continue to struggle this season, then that will make the decision even easier for Victor.”
