There is growing interest from Chelsea in securing the services of Nigerian international Victor Osimhen, with the club actively seeking attacking reinforcements.
Gianfranco Zola, former Chelsea midfielder, expresses his belief that Osimhen would make an excellent addition to the Chelsea squad, emphasizing the player’s suitability for the team’s needs.
“I rate him as one of the top strikers around at the moment, for his energy, for his ability to score and also play with the opposition. I’m sure he can be a success in the Premier League as well for sure,” Zola told Obionepodcast.
“Of course the way, you know for what I see with Chelsea I think a player with this quality will do very well. He will change a lot of things for Chelsea to the positive in my opinion but again as I said I truly believe that it was a right thing to stay again one more year with Napoli.”
“He has done extremely well but what is more important is to confirm what you’ve done the previous year. After you’ve done so well you are tested mentally and with a character, you need to confirm and do even better. I think it will be a good test for him.”
Osimhen secured the top scorer title in Serie A for the previous season, netting 26 goals in 32 league appearances.
