Chelsea’s renewed interest in Victor Osimhen has been sparked by the Napoli striker’s impressive return to form. Sky Sport Italia reveals that Osimhen has once again become Chelsea’s primary target for the number nine position.
Previously, Chelsea had reportedly abandoned their pursuit of Osimhen due to his lackluster performance in 2024, where he endured a goal drought in 10 out of 14 games and managed just one assist.
However, recent weeks have seen a resurgence in Osimhen’s form, with four goals scored in his last five games, marking a notable improvement.

Particularly impressive were his performances in the last two games, finding the net against both Roma and Udinese. On Monday, Osimhen showcased his prowess with an unstoppable header against Udinese, accompanied by an outstanding finish disallowed for offside.
This resurgence has prompted Chelsea to reignite their interest in Osimhen, making him their top priority for the upcoming transfer window.
Chelsea’s persistent struggle with scoring goals in recent years has intensified their pursuit of a top-class striker, with Osimhen emerging as their prime target once again.
