Chelsea vs. Real Madrid: Who Will Land Victor Osimhen in 2025?
Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca is likely pleased with his current forward options, as the team’s attack has been performing well in the Premier League.
Nicolas Jackson and Christopher Nkunku have been key contributors, with Jackson scoring four goals and Nkunku netting seven in all competitions.
Nkunku’s recent goal for France has boosted his confidence, and he is pushing to start in Chelsea’s upcoming match against Liverpool.
Despite their strong form, Chelsea continues to be linked with Napoli’s Victor Osimhen, who is currently on loan at Galatasaray.
Reports suggest that Chelsea is already in discussions about a potential €75 million (£62.8 million) deal to sign Osimhen in the summer of 2025.
Real Madrid has also shown interest in the Nigerian striker, but their current focus on integrating stars like Kylian Mbappe, Jude Bellingham, and Vinicius Junior into their lineup might make a move for Osimhen less likely.
While adding a player of Osimhen’s caliber would undoubtedly strengthen Chelsea’s squad, Maresca may not see him as a priority at the moment, given the success of Jackson and Nkunku. If Chelsea’s forwards continue their impressive form, the club could save millions by not pursuing a new striker and instead focusing on other areas of their squad. Nonetheless, the situation could evolve as the season progresses, and Chelsea’s interest in Osimhen remains a topic to watch for the future.
