The surprising departure of Karim Benzema After the end of the 22/23 season, it unleashed extreme urgency in Madrid to find a top-level replacement for the talented French striker. Many considered that Kylian Mbappé, after the Frenchman announced that he would not renew with PSG beyond 2024, would become the ‘9’ of Carletto to compete in the new seasonbut his distance from the White House forced both the Italian coach and Florentino Pérez to pay attention to the rest of the alternatives that the market offered.
Of all of them, that of Victor Osimhen began to gain a lot of support at the Santiago Bernabéu since the Nigerian striker of the Naples He has been putting together very notable performances for two seasons, these being supported by his wonderful scoring figures (49 goals recorded), and Real Madrid did not hesitate to ask the higher echelons of Diego Maradona about his situation, but The more than 150 million demanded by Aurelio De Laurentiis to open negotiations put back Merengue interest.
However, Osimhen’s performance continues to be very outstanding in the new campaign and, although Real Madrid has decided to withdraw from the bid for the 24-year-old playeranother European giant like Chelsea He has entered the race very strongly to close his signing.
According to the information we have received at Don Balón in the last few hours, Mauricio Pochettino has asked Todd Boehly, boss of the blueswho tries to close the signing of Victor Osimhen, although to tell the truth in January it will be very difficult for Napoli to agree to sell the player with all the titles to be played for in the second part of the campaign. That is Next summer there could be a record offer from Stamford Bridge to close what would be the most expensive signing in the club’s history, thus surpassing Enzo Fernández.
Let us remember that Chelsea is the club that has spent the most money on transfers during the last year and a half, but the problems are still evident in London and In the month we have been campaigning, the lack of goals is one of the great burdens that are complicating things for Pochettino.
