Chelsea announce massive deal – Superstar wants €11million-a-year join Chelsea -Striker wants Prem Move
Here is a roundup of the top Chelsea news and gossip that we think you guys may have missed today from icFootballnews – featuring Romelu Lukaku, Joao Felix and Victor Osimhen
Respected Italian Journalist Fabrizio Romano has opened up and claimed ‘that it on Chelsea; to complete the signing of Napoli star Victor Osimhen, a player that the Blues have chased for the last couple of transfer window,
Osimhen has been a player that CHELSEA have been looking at signing for the last few seasons and a player that definitely wants to leave Napoli this summer after handing in a transfer request in order to force a move.
Chelsea and PSG are the two clubs that are reportedly leading the chase to get the man all signed up – and Romano has opened up and claimed that it is up to the Blues to wrap up a deal for the big Nigerian star – Romano as he spoke to The Debrief Podcast
“Osimhen is a possibility that Napoli presented to Chelsea after they already thought of Osimhen at the beginning of the window … they left the conversation because the package was too expensive,” Romano said.
“But then Napoli presented this opportunity again to Chelsea during talks for Romelu Lukaku. But as I always mentioned, from what I’m hearing, Osimhen doesn’t want to reduce his salary, €11million net per season, and Osimhen doesn’t want to go on loan. This is the idea of the player – only a permanent transfer or loan with obligation. So kind of permanent transfer
“At the moment, CHELSEA are not offering these conditions. So the only way to see Osimhen to Chelsea is to obviously sign the player on a permanent transfer or try to change his mind. So it’s on Chelsea. But at the moment, I can guarantee that nothing is changing on Osimhen’s story.
“I don’t think it’s going to change today, tomorrow. Now the full focus is on the Joao Felix/Gallagher saga, also with Osimhen to find a new solution. And then we will see what happens with Osimhen.
‘But I always had a feeling that this is something for the final weeks or days of the window.”
BROJA WANTS EVERTON MOVE –
Much talked about striker Armando Broja is keen to join Everton from Chelsea if he is given the opportunity before the transfer deadline, according to the latest news in the media this week.
CHELSEA have sold the likes Ian Maatsen, Lewis Hall, Omari Hutchinson and Hakim Ziyech, to name a few, so far this summer, while they are open to offers for Romelu Lukaku, Kepa Arrizabalaga, Conor Gallagher and Trevoh Chalobah.
Many reports have claimed that the Blues are also hoping to offload Armando Broja this summer after he failed to make the kind of impact at the club that many had hoped for, with injuries and poor loan spells plaguing his time with the club.
Many reports over the weeks have constantly claimed the Blues will try to make sure that Broja is let go in order to free up some space in the squad, and funds to pursue other transfer targets, but no move has happened yet.
However – The Albania international is expected to depart Stamford Bridge this summer – with recent reports claiming that Everton have made a move to get the player signed up on a loan.
Now, according to i News. Broja is very keen to make the move to Everton and is keen to get a deal done as soon as possible.
Reporter Iomie Stanley has recently claimed that Chelsea will make sure that Broja is let go by the end of the summer window – they are just trying to get him off the books permanently – he told icfootballnews: Broja is a player that Chelsea do not want – he is a player that they do not believe has the ability to make any sort of impact and they really want him gone.
‘But it seems that clubs are only willing to sign Broja on a loan basis rather than a permanent one – which is why he is still at the club.
“It has been claimed that CHELSEA want £40 million for the powerhouse – which is another reason why he is still at Stamford Bridge – but they will lower that demand the closer we get to the end of the transfer window.
‘A loan move is probably the right thing as Chelsea cant get a permanent deal done.
COLE PALMER SIGNS UP –
Chelsea have agreed to sign up brilliant midfielder Cole Palmer to a new and improved contract – which will see the star linked to the club until at least the summer of 2033.
The Blues paid £42.5million to Manchester City for him last summer and he repaid that faith with a staggering 25 goals in his first season at the club – which also earned him his first call-up to the England National side.
The winger penned a seven-year contract upon arrival at Stamford Bridge, which includes the option of a further 12 months, on £80,000-a-week.
That put the 22-year-old in the lower end of wage scale within the Chelsea squad while it is only just over a quarter of what Raheem Sterling pockets in West London.
Now the Sky Sports website have claimed that the West Londoners “were mindful of this and reqarded Palmer with incremental wage rises to better reflect his importance and performances”
It is claimed that CHELSEA wanted to make sure that Palmer is one of the highest paid players at the club to warn off interest from clubs that have also been impressed by his performances last season.
IcFootballnews View…
Signing for Chelsea on just £80,000-a-week is made as the players is worth alot more than that – and his agent needs to make sure that a new deal is struck to get him in line with the clubs big earners.
He will be one of the players that help drive the club forward into a new era – but if he is not getting the money that he deserves – then he may push for a move away when clubs come in with offers.
CHELSEA needed to make sure that they got this deal done – and it seems like that have.
