Chelsea close books on Osimhen, agree personal terms with Nigeria-eligible striker
English Premier League side, Chelsea FC, have moved on from their long-term pursuit of Nigerian football star Victor Osimhen, by securing a personal agreement with Samu Omorodion, who is of Nigerian descent, Soccernet.ng reports.
The Super Eagles star has been on Chelsea’s radar since the start of the summer transfer window, with the club looking to boost their attacking lineup for the next season.
However, the transfer tussle between Osimhen’s camp and Chelsea has become increasingly unrealistic, with the club unable to meet Napoli’s price tag for Osimhen and the 25-year-old’s reluctance to move to Chelsea on loan.
