Victor Osimhen’s transfer from Napoli to Chelsea fell through on the day of the deadline.
On deadline day, the Nigerian international was being linked to a move to Stamford Bridge, but the parties were unable to reach a consensus, placing the 25-year-old in a challenging situation.
Fabrizio Romano, an Italian sports journalist, claims that Chelsea and Napoli’s talks fell late in the window.
Victor Osimhen and Chelsea have not reached a consensus, although a fresh proposition was made two hours ago. Deal off to Victor Osimhen in full. With no deal with Chelsea, the delegation from the #CFC is currently departing Napoli.
“Osimhen will remain at Napoli but won’t be playing for the first team if Saudi Arabia doesn’t take action in the next three days. Right now, the relationship is utterly shattered, Romano posted on social media.
