The board of Chelsea have been informed by their coach, Enzo Maresca about his support for the pursuit of Napoli Victor Osimhen.

Chelsea are searching for a striker this summer and they are monitoring Osimhen ituation.

Nonetheless, they are not willing to meet Napoli asking price of £110.8m (€130m), which is his release clause.

The former Serie A champions have reduced their valuation to £85.8m (€100m) but both Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain do not want to match that value.

According to Sky Sports Italy, Maresca, after he lost out on Samu Omorodion, a move from Atletico Madrid over the weekend has sanctioned Osimhen transfer personally.
