Victor Osimhen tells Chelsea transfer timeframe as £86m Kylian Mbappe 'offer' made

Napoli striker Victor Osimhen has dropped his biggest hint yet over his future amid continued links to Chelsea.

The Nigerian international has been tipped for a blockbuster move to Stamford Bridge for the last 18 months. As well as Chelsea, Arsenal have also been linked.

Osimhen, who recently signed a new contract with Napoli which includes a release clause over £100million, has made a name for himself in Italy with a prolific goalscoring record. Last campaign, the 25-year-old scored 31 goals in 39 appearances to help Napoli win the Scudetto.

His form has been up and down this term. Osimhen is currently away at the African Cup of Nations with Nigeria but that hasn't stopped speculation growing linking him with a move to the Premier League.

Speaking on his future with Sky Italy, he said: «I am happy with the president [of Napoli]. I have a good relationship with him, I cannot lie, he has been with me since I signed for the club in 2020.

»I have a good relationship with his family also. It is always important for me to make sure there is nothing wrong, regardless of what has happened, with the relationship with him and his family. He has been supportive of me outside the pitch and of course, I give my all trying to win the Scudetto with them."
