Chelsea have been dealt a major transfer blow as Super Eagles striker target Victor Osimhen is set to sign a new contract with Napoli.
According to Mail Online, the Nigerian international, who has scored six goals in 11 Serie A games this season is set to be rewarded for his good form.
Several clubs are reportedly in the market for a striker, especially Chelsea who have been eyeing a January move for the player.
Osimhen has scored an impressive 66 goals in 116 appearances for the Naples team after joining for a club-record fee of £69.5million from Lille in 2020.
His goal-scoring form helped the Partenopei win the Scudetto for the time in over three decades.
