Chelsea have identified Napoli striker Victor Osimhen as their top transfer target for 2024, according to The Telegraph.

The Blues have set their sights on the Nigeria international to work under manager Mauricio Pochettino.

The 24-year-old moved to Naples in 2020 and became an instant fan favorite having led the team to their first scudetto last term since 1990. 

Napoli does not mind selling their most prized asset if they were to receive an offer for no less than €150m.

Osimhen recovered recently from an injury that kept him out of action for several months and is set to feature for Napoli in their upcoming matches.
