EPL: Petit urges Blues to sign Osimhen
Former Chelsea midfielder, Emmanuel Petit believes Victor Osimhen will be a good signing for the West London club.
The Blues have struggled in front of goals this season and are looking for attacking reinforcement this summer.
Osimhen will definitely be in hot demand this summer following his consistent scoring displays for Serie A leaders, Napoli.
The Nigeria international has scored 21 goals in 25 appearances across all competitions for the Partenopei this season.
He is also currently the leading scorer in Serie A with 19 goals from 20 appearances.
“If I was Chelsea, I would go for Osimhen over the likes of Marcus Thuram. You know there is a striker’s curse at Chelsea but someday this will be broken and he could do it, “Petit told the Premier League odds.
“I have followed Osimhen since he played for Lille and he was already a very good striker.”
