Alex Crook, a talkSPORT journalist, has now provided some intimate knowledge on the Serie A center-forward.
He appears to be Chelsea’s priority this summer in their pursuit of a new frontman.
“Keep an eye on Chelsea’s number nine, Victor Osimhen.” “I’ve heard he’s the one they’re interested in this summer,” Crook told talkSPORT.
Osimhen had an incredible 2022/23 season in Naples, leading the club to their first league title since 1990.
This season, the Nigerian attacker has 28 goals in 37 games across all competitions, including five in the Champions League.
With his pace and general physicality, he appears tailor-made for the Premier League, so could we see him play English football for the first time very soon?
The media has speculated that Chelsea may be interested in signing him this summer.
Chelsea are sure they can win the race to recruit Osimhen even without the offer of Champions League football next season, according to 90min last month. However, they name Manchester United, Bayern Munich, and Paris Saint-Germain as potential bidders for the Napoli talisman.

However, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Chelsea is not the frontrunner to sign Osimhen this summer.
Osimhen has played as well as any forward in the world this season, so bringing him to Stamford Bridge would be quite an accomplishment.
As the transfer window opens in the coming months, it will be a really exciting story to follow.
