Chelsea FC Reportedly Set to Open Talks with Top-Class Striker

The number 9 position at Chelsea Football Club has been a big problem at the club in recent seasons since the departure of Diego Costa in the summer of 2017.

The Blues have played most of the games this season without a proper striker. However, there could have the services of Romelu Lukaku, who will return from his loan move from Inter Milan, and David Fofana who recently joined from Molde, they could also trigger the buy-back clause deal on Tammy Abraham.

There are reports that Chelsea are looking to submit a bid for Napoli's striker, Victor Osimhen when the 2023 summer transfer window opens. According to Calciomercato, the Blues are looking to fend off their Premier League rivals by offering American winger Pulisic plus cash to the Serie A club.

The Nigerian has scored 21 goals in 19 league games as they are on course to win the league for the first time since 1990. He also inspired Napoli to the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League. Osimhen has never hidden his desire to play in the Premier League but any club that will buy him away from Napoli must be ready to break the bank.
