Victor Osimhen, a striker for Napoli, is a target for Chelsea.
According to CBS reporter Ben Jacobs, who shared his information of Osimhen's prospective transfer to the Premier League with GIVEMESPORT, that is the case.
Though he is aware that Chelsea are "not at the front of the queue" for his signature at the moment, the writer thinks the £85 million star would fit into Graham Potter's system at the club rather well.
In an interview with GIVEMESPORT, Jacobs predicted that the player would eventually make an ambitious transfer to the Premier League. Chelsea, though, is not first in line.
"The similarities to Didier Drogba are somewhat accurate, and he would definitely work well in Chelsea's style. But they're not giving him priority.
partly because of the fee that would be asked and also because there are other suitors in the mix at this stage.
“It’s one to watch for sure, from Chelsea’s point of view, but they’re certainly not the only club chasing him.”
The next Drogba
Osimhen’s emphatic exploits in the front line have seen him earn some extremely honourable plaudits, with his comparison to Chelsea legend Didier Drogba topping the charts.
Osimhen’s former teammate Nicolas Penneteau has waxed lyrical over the Nigerian’s ability, stating this, as per GOAL on Twitter: “From the first training sessions, we saw that [Osimhen] was a player of different class.
“I said it when he moved to Lille but for me, he might be the next Drogba in the French league.”
And in wake of those claims, the 23-year-old has pushed on emphatically.
Boasting seven goals in eight games, Osimhen is tearing the Serie A defences up for a resurgent Napoli side who have been scintillating this season
