Chelsea plan to sign Victor Osimhen in player-plus-cash deal

Chelsea Football Club reportedly intend to sign Victor Osimhen from Napoli this summer on a player-plus-cash deal.

The player-plus-cash deal is expected to include Christian Pulisic’s move to Italy.

It remains to be seen whether the Serie A leader would be open to such an offer, but the prospect of Pulisic playing more minutes at the Stadio Armando Maradona than he currently does at Stamford Bridge could be exciting for him.

Although manager Graham Potter’s future hangs in the balance, club officials are apparently determined to plan his recruitment strategy for next season, according to Italian website Calciomercato.

According to TransferMarkt, Osimhen is valued at $74m (€70m).

The 24-year-old Nigerian is in the form of his life this season, scoring 21 goals in 23 Serie A appearances as Napoli remain 19 points clear of second-placed Lazio.
