Earlier reports suggest that the long transfer saga between Chelsea and Napoli seems to be reaching its conclusion, with Napoli reportedly accepting the London club’s offer to sign the Nigerian star.

However, with the transfer window nearing its end, the race is far from over, as the Nigerian goal poacher has refused to lower his salary, making his personal agreement crucial to the deal.

This has kept the door open for big-money clubs, particularly Al Ahli, who remain in pursuit of Osimhen with competitive offers.

While the transfer saga appears to be edging towards a move to Chelsea, the Super Eagles striker has tentatively agreed to a weekly wage of €350,000 with the Blues, a significant reduction from his initial demand of €500,000.

Despite this progress, Chelsea supporters should hold off on celebrating. The transfer drama is far from resolved, as Saudi Arabian clubs continue to show strong interest, with offers that could exceed the terms Chelsea has presented.

The situation remains fluid, with the possibility of Osimhen’s future taking unexpected turns as the transfer window draws to a close.
