Victor Osimhen open to Chelsea move?

Fresh claims from icfootballnews suggest that Victor Osimhen could be interested in a move to the Premier League this summer — a development that has inevitably reignited talk of a potential bid from Chelsea FC.

The Nigerian forward is expected to be one of the headline names available in the upcoming window, and Chelsea’s long-standing need for a proven goalscorer makes the link difficult to ignore.

CHELSEA have struggled to secure a consistent No. 9 since the departures of Diego Costa and Didier Drogba. Despite heavy investment in other areas, the club still lack a dominant, elite-level striker capable of converting chances and lifting the team’s attacking output.

Osimhen fits that profile perfectly. His blend of pace, power, aerial dominance, and ruthless finishing is rare among modern forwards. At his peak, he is one of the most feared strikers in Europe.

However, signing Osimhen will not be straightforward. His club is expected to demand a massive fee, quite possibly one of the highest of the summer, and Chelsea must navigate financial sustainability regulations carefully. While the Blues have proven willing to spend, they may need significant player sales to create room for a marquee signing of this scale.

Another factor is CHELSEA’s current league position and overall project stability. A superstar like Osimhen will want assurance the team is moving in a clear direction — especially regarding European football.

Would Chelsea Actually Make an Offer?

There are several reasons why Chelsea might pull the trigger, as He is their top-profile, natural No. 9 target, and such players rarely hit the market, The club understands the urgent need for a clinical striker to push their project forward.

Osimhen himself is reportedly open to a Premier League move, which increases the feasibility of negotiations. But there are also arguments against moving decisively as The price tag could exceed £100 million.

If Osimhen is indeed intrigued by the Premier League, Chelsea would certainly be one of the more appealing landing spots. The club’s ambition, history of big transfers, and willingness to build around major signings could give them an advantage.

Could He Join Chelsea in the summer?

If Chelsea can pitch him as the centrepiece of the next phase of their project, the move becomes far more realistic.

A CHELSEA bid is absolutely possible. The club admire Osimhen, desperately need his profile, and are one of the few teams capable of meeting his price and wages, But Galatasaray wont want him to leave easily.

Expect rumours to intensify as the window approaches — because if Osimhen truly wants the Premier League, Chelsea will feel they cannot afford to sit out the conversation.
