In-demand Star Will Be €90 million Bargain Signing For Chelsea – Blues Fans Told
TNT Pundit Eni Aluko has opened up and claimed that paying €90 million in the January transfer window for the likes of Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United would be a real winter bargain, as the striker will bring goals.
During the summer transfer window, there was a hell of alot of transfer speculation that Chelsea were working hard to try and get Osimhen all signed up, that he was a player the club really wanted to sign after he revealed he wanted out of Napol.
But despite all the speculation, despite all the hype, despite all the potential excitement from Blues fans, CHELSEA did not want to pay his massive asking price and in the end, the Blues missed out on getting the big Nigerian star and he eventually made his way to Galatasaray.
Osimhen reminded his former and current suitors of his goalscoring prowess on Thursday night, finding the net against Tottenham Hotspur in the UEFA Europa League, although he missed alot of chances to add to his two goals against the Premier League side.
Aluko responded that Osimhen’s reported release clause of £109.5 million might have dissuaded Premier League clubs from making a move, though this has been reduced after signing a new contract until June 2027.
“I think the price tag scared a lot of teams off. I think it’s €130 million the break clause. That’s a lot of money for the Arsenals who are probably looking at him,” said Aluko
“I think it’s come down now because Napoli want to do a deal. I think it’s come down to €90 million [for January] which I think is a steal.”
She Added: “He’s guaranteed goals. Even though he’s fallen out with Napoli. He scores goals. He’s great in the air, a physical presence. He’s a sort of throwback.
“He’ll always run down the centre. He’s not interested in coming deep. He’ll go down the gut of teams. He just wants to get in the box and he dominates. He wants that contact with defenders.
“I actually respect the fact that he’s not gone to Saudi Arabia, because I think he could’ve done. But I think he knows that he can still play at the highest level.
“And ultimately I think what makes a lot of these players is their character, that bit of maverick about them.
“So I think an Arsenal or a CHELSEA should be looking at him. Arsenal in particular, who’ve got goalscoring problems.”
