Chelsea are set to have a say in whether Manchester United can beat Arsenal to Victor Osimhen in the summer transfer window. The Blues' Premier League rivals have been heavily linked with the striker this season, but the west Londoners are poised to be a significant chess piece in a potential deal.
Napoli have identified Chelsea loanee Armando Broja as a replacement for Osimhen amid growing interest in the latter's services, according to Gazzetta dello Sport. The Cobham graduate has impressed on loan at Southampton this season, directly contributing towards six goals in 19 Premier League starts.
Broja has reportedly emerged as a target for the Italian giants following a 'secret meeting' between Napoli chairman Aurelio De Laurentiis and Osimhen's agent Roberto Calenda on Wednesday to discuss 'an undeniable €100 million (£84.5m) bid from United. The report claims that the Nigeria international is tempted by a move to Old Trafford at the end of the season.
