Glen Johnson believes Victor Osimhen has not yet done enough to warrant comparisons with Chelsea icon Didier Drogba, contrary to some recent statements. The 24-year-old striker has been heavily linked with a move to the Premier League recently as he continues to impress for Napoli this season.
Osimhen, who sees his deal with the Italian giants expire in 2025, has featured 23 times in the Serie A for Luciano Spalletti's side this term, directly contributing towards 26 goals. His stunning displays have guided Napoli 19 points clear of second-placed Lazio in the race to win the Scudetto, thus reportedly courting the interest of Chelsea and Arsenal.
The Nigeria international's performances have also caught the eye of Jose Mourinho, with the Roma boss likening Osimhen to Drogba. The Blues have struggled to replace the Ivorian, with only Diego Costa and Olivier Giroud coming close to fulfilling target man role at Stamford Bridge.
