Chelsea and Tottenham prepare Osimhen approach

Sky Sport Italia suggest Chelsea will make a call to Napoli next week for €150m-rated Victor Osimhen, with Tottenham also potentially joining Manchester United and PSG in the race.

The striker’s agent met with President Aurelio De Laurentiis to discuss a potential contract extension and to set the price-tag that would make them consider sitting down with another club.

It is believed to be at an absolute minimum of €150m, so anything less than that won’t even be worth talking about. This evening, Sky Sport Italia pundit Massimo Marianella claimed that Chelsea are not scared off by the asking price and will make a call to Napoli next week to get a clearer idea of the situation.

They aren’t the only ones, as Paris Saint-Germain could go for Osimhen if Kylian Mbappé moves on to Real Madrid this summer, while Manchester United have long been interested. A new contender would be Tottenham Hotspur, who risk losing Harry Kane in the transfer window and need a big replacement.
