“If they can sign these two players Chelsea can win the league” – Mikel Obi names two players Chelsea needs to sign this January
Chelsea was a strong candidate for the Premier League crown in the early going thanks to Enzo Maresca, but their recent poor play has sparked concerns about their offensive strategy.
The Blues have lost their last four games, and throughout that time, striker Nicolas Jackson has been in poor form and has not scored a goal.
Former Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel has voiced his concerns about the team’s lack of firepower up front, offering a bold solution to their title ambitions.Speaking on Chelsea’s current struggles, Mikel said: “If we have a Victor Osimhen or Viktor Gyokeres, trust me, we would be competing to win the Premier League.”
The former Nigeria international’s comments highlight the need for a prolific striker to capitalise on the creativity within the team. With Victor Osimhen thriving at Napoli and Viktor Gyokeres impressing at Sporting CP, both players could be transformative additions for Chelsea.
