Osimhen’s Chelsea Move in Doubt Over £500,000-a-Week Wage Demands
Victor Osimhen’s potential transfer from Napoli to Chelsea may be in jeopardy due to his high wage demands. According to reports from *The Sun*, the Nigerian forward is seeking a salary of £500,000 per week to finalize the move to Stamford Bridge.
This steep demand has caused Chelsea to reconsider their options, particularly with the summer transfer window set to close in less than a week.
In addition to his wage request, Osimhen has reportedly expressed reluctance to move on a loan deal, preferring a permanent transfer instead.
With negotiations becoming increasingly difficult, Chelsea has started exploring alternative options for strengthening their attacking lineup.
Among the players being considered are Juventus winger Federico Chiesa, who has been sidelined by the Italian club, and Everton’s Dominic Calvert-Lewin, who is entering the final year of his current contract.
Meanwhile, Osimhen’s impressive form and reputation have also drawn interest from other top European clubs, including Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain, who may also enter the race for his signature.
As the clock ticks down on the transfer window, Chelsea must decide whether to meet Osimhen’s financial demands or pursue other alternatives to bolster their attack.
Former English footballer, Jamie Redknapp, makes bold suggestion regarding Mohamed Salah to leave the club, Liverpool.
The suggestion came after Liverpool manager Arne Slot criticized the player — a move Redknapp called out following Salah’s benching in the last match.
The former player shared “I don’t necessarily think in January. I just think we have got to let this settle. But I don’t foresee that he will see out the two years of his contract. I think it might be more in the summer.”
Arsenal football manager Mikel Arteta speaks on the team’s defeat against Aston Villa, 2–1, in their match on Saturday.
It can be recalled that Aston Villa scored a goal in the first half, but Arsenal scored back in the second half. After equalizing, Aston Villa scored another goal.
“In the first half we had moments, obviously had the best chance after a foul on Riccy [Calafiori] that Watkins goes through,” Arteta said.
“In the second half we started really well. Scored a goal and we were really dominant.”
Former Liverpool player, Jamie Carragher, speaks on Arsenal’s next match and claims that their game against Aston Villa will be challenging and described it as a test for the team to see how well they perform.
“Arsenal have looked the best team in the league by a long way so far this season, but Man City are still only five points behind.
There’s a long way to go and Arsenal will need to keep their heads! It could be tested tomorrow against Aston Villa!!”
