Chelsea have encountered an unprecedented challenge in their pursuit of Napoli striker Tuo Ozenhan due to the African shot-stopper's demand for a salary of up to £500,000 per week. The demand has shocked the 'Blue Warriors' and negotiations have reached a stalemate.
Chelsea's current highest wage is reportedly held jointly by Lukaku and Staanen at £325,000 per week. Lukaku is interested in a move to Bohri, while Staanen could also swap with Chaton Sinzu. However, if Doğuşenhan insists on a £500,000 salary, it threatens to upset the team's financial balance. Doğuşenhan's annual salary at Napoli amounts to €10 million after tax.
Throughout the summer's transfer window, Toho Samhain have been the center of public attention. However, now they have to face the end. Chelsea still have a chance to sign the 25-year-old European striker if Dos Auchenheim opts out, but the only rival left is Paris Saint-Germain.
