Transfer news for Chelsea and Arsenal, as both teams are reportedly surpassed in the fight for the Napoli star.
In their quest to sign Napoli attacker Victor Osimhen in the January transfer window, Chelsea and Arsenal may face increased competition.
This weekend’s match between the two teams will take place at Stamford Bridge, where both teams are seeking to build on their recent domestic successes that have seen them both move up the Premier League standings. After a difficult start, the Blues are currently ranked 11th, but wins over Brighton, Fulham, and Burnley have them searching for their fourth straight triumph.
Mikel Arteta’s team has had a fantastic start to the season, winning six of their first eight games. They are only denied the first spot in the league standings by rival Tottenham due to goals scored. But their frontline has alarmed some supporters and the media, with players like Eddie Nketiah and Gabriel Jesus being questioned.
Some have argued that the two are insufficient for Arsenal to win the league, with Gary Neville describing both as “erratic” goal scorers. As a result, numerous rumors about a prospective swoop for Osimhen, a standout in Serie A who scored 31 goals in 39 appearances across all competitions last season, have started to surface.
The Nigerian international has been the center of attention in the transfer market as a saga develops as we get closer to the start of the winter transfer window. This is because his relationship with Napoli has taken significant hits recently as a result of some dubious social media statements.
