Osimhen wants £500k per week to join Chelsea, Blues seek alternatives – report

Chelsea’s pursuit of Napoli striker Victor Osimhen has hit a potential roadblock due to the player’s significant wage demands.

talkSPORT reports that Osimhen is seeking around £500,000 per week to make the move to Stamford Bridge.

This figure would make him the highest-paid player in the Premier League, but Chelsea are not giving in.

In light of these demands, Chelsea are now exploring alternative options.

Everton’s Dominic Calvert-Lewin has emerged as a possible target, as the Blues look for a more financially feasible option.

Additionally, Juventus’ Federico Chiesa, who has fallen out of favour at the Italian club, is also being considered as a potential signing.
