£112,000-a-week Nigerian striker tops Chelsea's summer transfer target.

Chelsea will be in the race for Victor Osimhen if he decides to leave the Italian club next summer.

Osimhen is a player on the wish list of almost every big club in the world for the summer transfer window, and Chelsea are not different. The club have an interest in the Nigerian striker, who could leave Napoli in the coming months for a new challenge.

Osimhen's ex-Napoli team-mate Kalidou Koulibaly is currently enjoying his football at Chelsea, and could recommend that the player come and join him in London next season.

If Victor Osimhen does decide to leave the club in the coming months, Chelsea are set to be part of the race.

According to Graham Bailey of 90min, Chelsea have stepped up their scouting pursuits of Napoli striker Victor Osimhen, and will certainly be in the mix for his signature if the player decides he wants to leave the club.

Manchester United are a club with well known interest in the player, and the new Cristiano Ronaldo situation may just open up an avenue for the club to pursue Osimhen. 

Chelsea will definitely face competition for the signature of the player, but will certainly be able to compete financially with whoever stands in their way.

Napoli are looking for a fee in the region of £100million or above for the striker, which seems to be the going rate for high level strikers these days.

If there is a race for Victor Osimhen, expect Chelsea to be running in it.

Graham Potter has succeeded in these three areas where Tuchel failed.

 OPINION: Graham Potter has succeeded in these three areas where Tuchel failed.  The Blues were back in Premier League action on Saturday, and had sealed a 3-0 victory over Wolves at the Bridge.  The game had seen goals come from the Blues' attacking options, something which had rarely been seen in the Tuchel era.  Not just that, there were noticeable changes and improvement in team set up that were not seen under the former German Boss. All of which will be highlighted below.  Firstly, the handing of debut to Chelsea's signing, Carney Chukwuemeka. Graham Potter's choice to hand one of his starlets a debut demonstrates the trust that he has in the young players at Stamford Bridge that can help him through a tricky run. It's harder than it seems to just trust the youth though.  Tuchel struggled to fully implement the pathway desired and was always focused on the here and now, the short term. He felt warmth with experience. Potter already looks to have brough...
