Victor Osimhen is set to join Chelsea this summer, and that is according to a new report by Teamtalk.

The Nigerian striker will sign a pre-contract agreement with the Blues this month, but he won’t be able to complete the move until later in the summer.

The outlet claims that Osimhen’s decision to sign for Chelsea came after he was contacted by former Blues, Didier Drogba and John Obi Mikel.

The Napoli striker recently signed a contract extension with his current employers, and now has a £112m release clause on his head.

Chelsea are in the market for a forward, but all reports indicate Osimhen is out of it, after his new deal. Maybe, the guys at Teamtalk know something that we don’t.
