Chelsea fear PSG leading Osimhen transfer battle

Premier League giants Chelsea are assessing alternatives to Napoli striker Victor Osimhen.

The Nigerian had been the club's no.1 target to secure for their troubled attacking position.

However, The Standard says their plans are changing, with the striker now firmly in Paris Saint-Germain's sights.

PSG are adamant they will be signing Osimhen to replace the departing Kylian Mbappe.

PSG will save €200 million a season with Mbappe's wages off their books, a lot of which will go to Napoli for Osimhen.

The striker signed a new contract earlier this season, but it does include a £113 million release clause.
