Chelsea gives official permission to Victor Osimhen transfer as deal gets closer.

Latest Chelsea transfer news and gossip as Victor Osimhen continues to be linked with a move to Stamford Bridge since the transfer window closed.

Chelsea may have received a boost in their pursuit of Victor Osimhen, despite the fact that the striker appears to be leaving for another team.

The Blues were interested in signing Osimhen during the summer transfer window, as Napoli declared the striker available for transfer. In addition to Chelsea, Saudi Pro League team Al Ahli was reportedly interested in signing the Nigerian international.

In the end, Osimhen remained at Napoli when England’s summer transfer market closed, effectively ending Chelsea’s prospects of reaching an agreement. However, it appears like the Blues may still have some hope of bringing Osimhen to Stamford Bridge in the future.

According to Fabrizio Romano, Osimhen is close to signing a loan agreement with Galatasaray. The transfer window in Turkey remains open until September 18, and the Super Lig club hopes to recruit Osimhen on loan until the conclusion of the season.

Osimhen’s move to Galatasaray comes after Napoli leader and former Chelsea manager Antonio Conte acknowledged that the striker was no longer in the Serie A club’s plans. Osimhen is not in Napoli’s plans and appears to be on his way out, thus the agreement may urge Chelsea to pursue the striker in the future.
