Victor Osimhenās latest transfer update boosts his chances of a potential move to London. Both Chelsea and Arsenal had shown interest in the Nigerian striker over the summer, with Chelsea emerging as the frontrunner towards the end of the transfer window. However, the deal ultimately fell through, as Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca cited āunfavorable conditionsā for the transfer. This left Osimhen in a difficult position at Napoli, leading him to sign on for another year with the club. Eventually, he secured a loan move to Galatasaray.
Osimhenās relationship with Napoli appeared strained, and his behavior suggested he no longer intended to play for the Serie A side. Despite this, Antonio Conte, the manager, chose not to include him in the lineup. As a result, the 25-year-old made a last-resort move to Turkey.

The prolific striker, who attracted interest from PSG and Al-Ahli during the summer, made it clear he preferred to stay in Europe. This leaves Chelsea with a renewed opportunity to sign him. However, they may hesitate due to the form of current forwards Nicolas Jackson and Christopher Nkunku. Even so, the ongoing transfer saga surrounding Osimhen shows no signs of ending.
