Football journalist, Nizaar Kinsella has tipped Chelsea to win the battle to sign Victor Osimhen over rivals, Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur.

The Blues are in the market for a top finisher, despite signing Nicolas Jackson over the summer.

Osimhen netted 30+ goals, as Napoli raced to the Scudetto last season, and Chelsea are admirers of the 24-year-old.

Kinsella told the London is Blue podcast: “It’s a bad market for strikers in January, and Osimhen is the striker that everyone wants. There’s no point in getting another young one now. He’d be a great fit, and Chelsea like him. Osimhen likes Chelsea, I had the information for a little while.

“He’s always loved Chelsea, loved Drogba. They’ve got some similarities. He’d be interested in Manchester United, but they’re not going to sign a striker. It’s basically Chelsea, Arsenal and Spurs competing in the battleground and Osimhen would probably pick Chelsea out of the three.”
