Transfer blow for Chelsea as Napoli want two players to sell star to Arsenal

Napoli’s star Victor Osimhen has been linked with moves away from the Italian side this summer.

The recent report revealed the Naples are ready to sell Osimhen to Arsenal if they can get two players from the North London club as part of the deal.

Osimhen, who has two years left to run on his contract, has cemented himself in Napoli history, scoring 26 goals in 33 matches to help the Italian side to win the 2022-23 Serie A title.

Napoli, however, witnessed a significant drop-off last season, but the Nigerian star managed to finish the Serie A season with a respectable 15-goal tally.

Although he is attracting significant interest, Napoli’s financial demands could stop his chances of moving to another club.

Recall that Chelsea were in the race to sign Osimhen but they are unwilling to pay the striker’s €130m (£110.7m) release clause.

Arsenal who are also among the interested club may be able to convince the Italian side to drop their asking price if they offer players in exchange.

A report via Corriere dello Sport revealed the Gunners could include defender Takehiro Tomiyasu and attacker Emile Smith Rowe as part of a swap deal for Osimhen.

Napoli are said to be huge admirer of Smith Rowe and Takehiro.
