Chelsea offered TWO elite strikers as Victor Osimhen ‘agrees’ transfer

Chelsea have already spent £66m on transfers this summer but Enzo Maresca is still keen to bring in a new prolific striker before the window slams shut.

The former Leicester boss isn’t fully convinced that Nicolas Jackson can fire the Blues back to the top of the Premier League and wants more competition for him.

Napoli superstar Victor Osimhen is one striker who’s been heavily linked with a move to Stamford Bridge for several months.

However, the Nigerian international’s sky-high valuation has made it impossible for Chelsea to sign him this summer.

Reports from Italy suggest that Paris Saint-Germain have ‘agreed personal terms’ with Osimhen and everything points towards him joining the French giants.

PSG are yet to agree on a fee with Napoli and they aren’t willing to match his release clause of roughly £110m, but it’s claimed they could offer £85m and one unnamed player in exchange for him.

As a result of their move for Osimhen, Chelsea have reportedly been ‘offered’ the chance to sign two PSG forwards as Luis Enrique looks to free up room in the squad.
