Forget Delap – Chelsea told £350k-a-week signing ‘will guarantee’ Premier League title next season
The likes of Arsenal and CHELSEA have been told signing £64m star Victor Osimhen would ‘almost guarantee’ them the Premier League title, as rumours start that he could finally come to the Premier League.
The 26-year-old has been one of the most prolific goalscorers in Europe this season, netting 36 goals in 40 appearances to help Galatasaray win the Turkish league title. Before leaving Napoli, Osimhen scored 76 goals in 133 games for the Italian club, starring in their Serie A title win in 2022-23.
Now amid the round of latest transfer speculation, Osimhen would ‘almost guarantee’ both clubs the Premier League trophy, according to Nigeria assistant manager Daniel Ogunmodede.
‘In my opinion, Victor Osimhen is currently the best number nine in the world,’ Nigeria coach Ogunmodede told SportsBoom.
‘There are many top strikers in Europe, but no one brings what Victor does to the pitch.
‘Any team that signs him is almost guaranteed to win the league title. He’s that influential.
‘I’m excited about Victor Osimhen’s achievements in Turkey. Considering what happened [in the transfer market] last summer, making that move was a bold decision, but he’s handled it brilliantly.
‘Osimhen deserves all the success he’s getting. He’s hardworking, disciplined, and fully committed.’
