Chelsea are keen to sign Roma’s sensational striker Victor Osimhen, according to reports. The Nigerian international has been in scintillating form this season, netting 20 goals in all competitions for the Italian capital club.

Osimhen’s impressive displays have caught the eye of several top European clubs, with Chelsea believed to be leading the charge for his signature. The Blues are looking to strengthen their attacking options and see Osimhen as a key addition to their squad.

The 22-year-old has already caught the attention of Napoli, Inter Milan and Juventus, but it is understood that Roma are keen to keep hold of him.

Osimhen’s goal-scoring exploits have been impressive this season, with the striker netting five goals in his last seven appearances for Roma. His form has been a key factor in Roma’s push for a top-four finish in Serie A.

Chelsea are looking to bolster their attack after a disappointing Premier League campaign last season. The Blues finished sixth and missed out on European football, but are looking to make amends this term.

Osimhen would be an excellent addition to Chelsea’s squad, providing them with a physical presence up front and a goal-scoring threat. His pace, power and finishing ability make him a formidable opponent for any defender.

The move is still in the early stages, but it is understood that Chelsea are willing to meet Roma’s valuation of Osimhen, which is believed to be around £50 million.

For now, Osimhen will continue to focus on his football with Roma, but the allure of playing for one of Europe’s biggest clubs could prove too tempting. Only time will tell if Chelsea can secure the signature of this sensational striker.
