Stunning 37-goal message issued ahead of Chelsea’s IMMINENT first summer signing!

CHELSEA have been told they should have signed Manchester United target Victor Osimhen from Napoli instead of Liam Delap to solve their striker woes, as the Ipswich striker makes the move to London.

Chelsea have been spending money for fun over the last few transfer windows, have signed some quality players, and have signed some stars that are not good enough to play on a regular basis, but they are still lacking a quality striker.

Nicolas Jackson works hard for Enzo Maresca and does put in the good performances every now and then, but many Blues fans were hoping that a new striker was going to make the move to London in the January window, and Osimhen was a player linked with a move to the Blues.

Obviously Chelsea didnt even make a move for Osimhen and many believed that Chelsea would make a move for the Nigerian star this summer, but the Blues have made the decision to bring Delap to the club in a deal worth £30 million.

But ex-Chelsea stars Frank Leboeuf and William Gallas fear their former club picked the wrong striker and instead should have signed Victor Osimhen.

Osimhen, who came close to joining Chelsea last summer, scored 37 goals in 41 appearances during his loan spell at Galatasaray. He also boasted a superb record for Napoli before being exiled by Antonio Conte

Asked whether he was excited by the arrival of Delap at Chelsea, Leboeuf told ESPN: ‘I am, I am. I don’t know what’s going to happen with him but we need a striker, we desperately need a striker.

‘He’s a great, great player. Will he fit into Enzo Maresca’s system? Hopefully yes. He had a very good season. But I like Osimhen.’

Gallas, meanwhile, told Prime Casino: ‘Chelsea have been linked with a lot of different strikers. You’ve got the boy Liam Delap, he’s had a great debut season in the Premier League and he has a big future.

‘Other names like [Viktor] Gyokeres and [Benjamin] Sesko have been putting in good performances for their respective clubs on the continent.

‘But I would be signing Osimhen, all day long, everyday, twice on Sunday! I know what he can do, I know what he can bring to the CHELSEA squad.

‘I think he’d be perfect for the wingers there, because they aren’t the kind that just send in crosses. They come inside and shoot, or look for a pas
