The potential deal for Victor Osimhen to join Chelsea from Napoli has officially fallen through, as confirmed by transfer expert Fabrizio Romano. Despite extensive negotiations, the two clubs failed to reach an agreement on the terms of the transfer. As a result, the Chelsea delegation, which had traveled to Italy to finalize the deal, is now leaving Napoli without securing Osimhen’s signature.
The collapse of the transfer marks a significant setback for Chelsea, who were reportedly keen on signing the Nigerian striker to bolster their attacking options. Osimhen, known for his pace, strength, and clinical finishing, has been in outstanding form for Napoli, attracting interest from several top European clubs.
While the reasons for the breakdown in negotiations have not been officially disclosed, it is believed that disagreements over the transfer fee, personal terms, and the structure of the deal may have played a role. Napoli’s valuation of Osimhen, who is considered one of the most valuable strikers in Europe, is thought to have been a major sticking point.
With this development, Chelsea may need to explore other options in the transfer market to strengthen their squad, while Napoli will retain a key player who has been instrumental in their recent success. Meanwhile, Osimhen's future remains uncertain, as he continues to attract interest from other top clubs across Europe.
