The long-awaited move for Osimhen to Chelsea never saw the light of day after transfer talks stalled before the close of the transfer window.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Osimhen had been linked with a move from Napoli to Stamford Bridge, with Saudi Pro League side, Al Ahli also interested in signing the forward.
Uncertainty had beclouded Osimhen’s move to Chelsea. The Nigeria international was on a big contract at Napoli but Chelsea’s offer was below par.
Al Ahli offered Osimhen a whopping £60 million (about N141 billion) to lure him to Saudi. However, the Nigerian forward preferred to remain in Europe than to move to the Saudi Pro League.
Victor Osimhen-Chelsea deal now off as no agreement has been reached. No agreement with Chelsea and their delegation now leaving Napoli after negotiations collapsed tonight, sports journalist Fabrizio Romano disclosed.
Osimhen has become one of the deadliest strikers in Europe in recent campaigns and has bagged 55 Serie A goals over the last three seasons.
As it stands, if nothing happens from Saudi in the next 3 days, Osimhen will stay at Napoli, but will not be part of the squad.
Relationship between the player and the club is currently completely broken, as Osimhen does not want to play anymore for the Serie A side.
This means the only option left for the Super Eagles striker is a move away to Saudi Al Ahli.
Meanwhile, Chelsea have alternatively agreed to a deal to sign Jadon Sancho from Manchester United. United have agreed to the loan deal with buy obligation clause offered by Chelsea. Sancho has already said yes to the deal and set for medicals.
Similarly, Al Ahli have completed the deal to sign Ivan Toney on £40m deal from Brentford, following the failure to secure Osimhen.
Medicals have been done, contract agreed and Ivan will travel to Saudi this weekend to be presented as Al Ahli player.READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>
