Chelsea target angry with current club, believes proposed transfer to the Blues is unlikely to happen - Reports

Victor Osimhen is reportedly angry with Napoli as he believes they are making it difficult for Chelsea and Saudi Pro League side Al-Ahli. The Nigerian star wants to leave Naples and is holding talks with the two clubs.

As per a report by Loic Tanzi, Napoli have changed the goalpost with Al-Ahli. The Italian club have asked for more fees from the Saudi Arabian side after reports of their agreement with Ivan Toney came to light.

The striker also believes that the move to Chelsea is 'very difficult' as the personal terms are yet to be agreed. Moreover, the Blues have not struck an agreement with the Italian side as well despite just hours left in the window.

Osimhen's agent stated earlier this month that he was not planning to let the striker be moved around like a property. He posted on X:

"Osimhen is a Napoli player, with a contract recently renewed with mutual satisfaction. He made history and when there were major offers (also this year) we always accepted the club's decisions."

"As I said, it is not a package to be shipped far away to make room for new prophets. Victor was elected African footballer of the year, eighth at the Ballon d'Or, he still has so much to do in Europe. There is need respect and balance."

Al-Ahli had agreed a €80 million deal with Napoli, as per Fabrizio Romano.

"We want somebody who can finish, score goals, the tap-ins. Someone like Erling Haaland. That's something Victor Osimhen will bring to Chelsea.

A fantastic guy, fantastic human being and I really do hope he comes to the club and I'll try my best to make sure that happens. Didier is also speaking to him, sharing his own ideas and what the club means to us. We all want to see Victor come to the club."
