Chelsea Football Club's interest in Napoli striker Ousmane is heating up again, according to the latest news from renowned transfer market expert Di Marzio. The Nigerian striker's transfer prospects have become a hot topic in the football world recently.
Reports suggest that Napoli's sporting director is currently in London in advanced talks with Chelsea over the transfer of another striker, Romelu Lukaku. Meanwhile, Chelsea, for their part, have shown keen interest in Osmeen and could include Lukaku in a deal with Napoli for a player swap.
It is worth noting that Osmeen himself has expressed a strong desire to move to Chelsea on a permanent basis. However, as his expected salary is significantly higher than Chelsea's current wage cap, the salary issue has become a major obstacle in the negotiations between the two sides. In order to overcome this problem, Chelsea and Napoli may explore a variety of trade options, including a permanent transfer swap deal, a loan deal with a mandatory buyout clause, or Chelsea paying Napoli a certain amount of transfer compensation directly.
In addition, Osmeen has not played in Napoli's Coppa Italia matches recently, which has further fueled speculation about his future. Meanwhile, Paris Saint-Germain are also rumored to be making a possible last-minute offer in an attempt to intercept the hotshot striker. However, as things stand, Chelsea seem to be in a more favorable position in the battle for Osmeen.
For Chelsea, the successful introduction of Osmeen will undoubtedly greatly enhance the strength of the team's forward line. The Nigerian striker is known for his excellent physical quality, keen sense of goal and strong goal-scoring ability, and his joining will undoubtedly inject new vitality into Chelsea's attacking end. However, how to overcome the salary issue and reach a mutually acceptable deal will be the next important challenge for Chelsea.
