Chelsea FINALLY on the verge of completing signing of £250k-a-week who Enzo Maresca demand
According to reports, Chelsea is “on the verge” of finalizing a deal to recruit one of the world’s top strikers, Victor Osimhen, putting an end to one of the summer’s longest transfer sagas.
Ever since Todd Boehly took over, Chelsea has suffered. Under new manager Enzo Maresca, the club has gone on yet another massive buying spree, spending almost £161 million on nine new acquisitions so far.
To force a move out of the club, Osimhen has already submitted a transfer request. Obi Mikel claims that Osimhen “loves” Chelsea and would be eager to depart, and the Blues veteran has been doing his part to persuade the Nigerian to join Enzo Maresca’s team.
Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca is keen to push through the deal for the 25-year-old Nigerian after their move for Atletico Madrid ace Samu Omorodion fell through.
John Obi Mikel has revealed that Napoli striker Victor Osimhen loved Chelsea and would be very interested in a move to Stamford Bridge by the end of the transfer window.
CHELSEA have struggled since the Todd Boehly takeover and have embarked on another huge spending spree under new manager Enzo Maresca, with nine new signings so far at a cost of over £161m.
‘We don’t really need somebody who’s going to come in and be feeding and creating chances. We want somebody who can finish, score goals, the tap-ins,’ Obi Mikel said.
‘Someone like Erling Haaland. That’s something Victor Osimhen will bring to Chelsea.
‘I hope that CHELSEA fans will finally see him come to the club. I’ll make sure I send him those texts messages and calls, making sure Chelsea is his top priority!
‘But it seems like he loves the club and wants to come to Chelsea. I’m sure he has all the big clubs wanting to sign him. I think if we can secure his signature it would be fantastic for the club.”
