Osimhen still on the agenda

According to Chelsea writer Simon Phillips who has just put out a big update on his Substack site, Chelsea could still move back in for Victor Osimhen this summer.

Phillips says:

‘Striker is the priority, but it’s been reiterated to our SPTC sources that it is even more likely now with UCL football that the club could bring in two new strikers.

‘Chelsea are now likely to reach back out to Victor Osimhen to see what the situation is there. That deal is not dead.’
