Transfer Talk: Chelsea eye Osimhen-Lukaku swap deal

Chelsea are prioritising a move for Napoli striker Victor Osimhen when thetransfer market opens, says Calciomercato.

Osimhen, 25, has a reported €130 million release clause in his contract and is keen to move on for a new challenge this summer. The Nigeria international has been linked with Paris Saint-Germain, as they seek a replacement for Kylian Mbappe, as well as Manchester United.

Chelsea could hold a great bargaining chip though as they are reportedly open to including forward Romelu Lukaku, 30, as part of any deal, with the Belgium international set to return to Stamford Bridge from his loan spell at AS Roma at the end of the season.

The Blues are looking for around €40m for Lukaku's services, meaning they could end up paying around €80m to secure Osimhen.
