Chelsea will face competition with PSG who are interested in acquiring Victor Osimhen.
As per transfer insider Rudy Galetti, Chelsea are keen to sign Napoli attacker Victor Osimhen. The Blues are willing to trigger the release clause of €130m. They will meet the Napoli officials soon to discuss the payment structure.
Osimhen has been a primary target for the West London club. They will face competition with PSG who are interested in acquiring the Nigeria international.
Victor Osimhen would prefer a move to Chelsea in order that he can follow the same type of path of his idol, Didier Drogba.
Contacts with the player have been going on for months now: a multi-year 7- year contract is ready for him.

Paris Saint-German are eyeing an ideal replacement for Kylian Mbappe who is leaving the club at the end of the season. The Frenchman will make a move to Real Madrid.
Victor Osimhen has been one of the best strikers in Serie A and last season, he helped Napoli to win the title of Italian top-flight after 33 years. He has found the back of the net nine times and provided three assists in 18 games this season. His current contract keeps him until 2026.
Chelsea avoided any signing last winter and they are also offloading few players in the summer. They are confident of getting Osimhen at Stamford Bridge with an offer of €130m.
