Heading into a new, important transfer window, Chelsea are without a Champions League ticket to tempt them with, but Xabi Alonso’s signing with the London club will still provide an advantage when it comes to fighting for the best players. Now it is reported that one of the sharpest strikers on the market is back on the block at Chelsea, as a potential first signing for Alonso.
It is about Victor Osimhen. The Blues have been chasing Osimhen for a long time, with the player being considered a realistic signing this summer. Chelsea have a need for a pure number nine, Teamtalk’s sources claim Alonso as the new head coach can draw Osimhen to the Premier League club. The Spaniard’s reputation, tactical vision and long-term ambitions should act as a magnet for stars like Osimhen, who are also being considered by Real Madrid and Barcelona.
