"Chelsea Eager to Discuss Signing Terms: Club Aims to Secure Primary Target Through Negotiations"

Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain have emerged as frontrunners in the race to secure the services of Napoli's Victor Osimhen during the upcoming summer transfer window.

According to reports from Il Mattino on April 11th, PSG is on the verge of finalizing a deal for the 25-year-old Nigerian striker. However, a day later, the same outlet suggested that Chelsea would need to make significant moves to outmaneuver the French club in the transfer pursuit. Currently, Chelsea seems hesitant to accelerate their efforts in this regard.

Nevertheless, Chelsea remains keen on Osimhen, with journalist Rudy Galetti emphasizing that the Nigerian international is the primary target for the London club. Despite the slow progress in negotiations, Chelsea is determined to secure Osimhen's signature.

While reports from Italy have indicated a release clause ranging between €120m to €130m, Galetti refrains from mentioning specific figures but highlights Chelsea's intention to engage Napoli in negotiations over the terms of Osimhen's potential transfer.

However, Chelsea's pursuit of Osimhen comes with financial considerations, as the club must prioritize balancing their books. Galetti suggests that Chelsea may need to offload some players before initiating talks with Napoli for Osimhen's transfer.
