Victor Osimhen looks poised to be at the centre of an almighty transfer battle this summer as several European powerhouses look to claim the star striker's signature. Chelsea have been keen to place themselves at the front of the expensively-assembled queue, as the Napoli forward has been identified as being the man to solve the Blues' goal scoring issues.
Chelsea have struggled to break their apparent 'striker curse' in recent seasons, after expensive additions Romelu Lukaku, Alvaro Morata and Fernando Torres all failed to make the grade. Having found the back of the net on 25 separate occasions from 28 games in domestic and Champions League action, Osimhen's displays have understandably alerted the interest of Europe's heavyweights.
While competition will be fierce, Todd Boehly and co. will be hoping they have an advantage in the form of a former Blues legend. Having previously revealed his childhood idol was Didier Drogba, the Nigeria international has now admitted he hopes to emulate the ex-Chelsea striker on the global stage.
