TalkSPORT pundit Scott Minto has said that Mauricio Pochettino’s Chelsea should sign Napoli striker Victor Osimhen.

The former Chelsea left-back has said on talkSPORT (8:15am, June 13, 2023) that he would like the Blues to bring in Victor Osimhen from Napoli in the summer transfer window.

Minto made the comments while discussing the need for Chelsea to sign a new striker for next season and beyond.

Osimhen is one of the strikers who have been linked with a move to Chelsea.

The Guardian reported in May that Chelsea are keen on signing the Nigeria international striker and are lining up a move for the £93,000-a-week (SalarySport) star.

Minto said about Osimhen and Chelsea: “I like him as well, and he would be my guy.”

In our view, Napoli striker Victor Osimhen would be a brilliant signing for Chelsea in the summer transfer window.

The 24-year-old is one of the best strikers in the world at the moment and has been brilliant for Napoli over the years.

It was the striker’s goals that helped Napoli win the Scudetto in Italy this past season.

Osimhen scored 26 goals and gave four assists in Serie A this past campaign.

The striker also scored five goals in the UEFA Champions League this past season.

In 2021-22, Osimhen scored 14 goals and provided two assists in 23 Serie A starts.
