What has kept Osimhen transfer to still lingering is due to the market value placed on him with clubs like Arsenal, Bayern Munich who were earlier in the race too backing down leaving Chelsea and PSG still keen to acquiring him, although this would have been a done deal for PSG already but at a time they got unserious after evaluating their squad but their interest later rekindle amidst Goncalo Ramos injury.
But like I had said earlier, if PSG will be willing to incur all the requirements in acquiring Osimhen then is most likely he will agree a deal with the French giant since he will be playing in the champions league if he gets to join them. Everything about his fate will eventually unfold as the window transfer duration get winds down, however, I still maintain my stance that Chelsea are the team with a good looking advantage in this race for Osimhen despite not featuring in the UCL.
There is only 1 solution for Osimhen transfer to be realized, namely Napoli must lower its market value according to the club's capabilities. If this solution is not implemented, then Napoli and Osimhen will remain in the same position, standing still and doing nothing. Then about Chelsea, do you think everything is easy when you already have 44 players, is it still not enough? It doesn't matter as long as Todd Boehly money never runs out, but before that, as an illustration or simple comparison for you, today Chelsea will face Manchester City. Here we can judge with Chelsea squad of more than 40 whether Enzo Maresca has found the right composition to stop Manchester City.
The results of this first match will determine how good or bad Chelsea transfer is. Like it or not, it must be accepted considering that Chelsea has more players to choose from. If they fail to conquer Manchester City, it means buying that many players will be considered in vain.
Even if Chelsea buys Osimhen, their performance won't change that much. Look at any new signings they have made recently, most of them have not been able to perform up to their expectations. Mudryk, Caicedo are prime examples. They haven't done much of anything. Cole Palmer, Connor Gallagher, and others have carried this club in the last season. Without them, the results would have been much worse for Chelsea. Osimhen may or may not perform like he has been performing in Napoli. On the other hand, they are about to sell one of their best performers of last season, Connor Gallagher to Atletico Madrid. If that happens then Joao Felix will also be joining Chelsea, who also flopped a little when he was at Chelsea.
But I think by the end of the transfer season, Osimhen will find a new home. I don’t think he is happy in Napoli and he will be pushing Napoli officials to do the deals.
