Former Chelsea and Arsenal defender William Gallas has revealed that Napoli striker Victor Osimhen will join the Blues in the summer.
Gallas also compared Osimhen with Chelsea legend Didier Drogba, insisting that the Nigeria international will do a lot of damage in the Premier League.
Osimhen signed a contract extension last December that ties him to Napoli until 2026.
However, Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis has confirmed that Osimhen will leave this summer despite extending his deal.
Osimhen has attracted interest from the likes of Chelsea, Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain.
“I think they [Chelsea] will sign Victor Osimhen in the summer. I don’t know Victor that well as a person but he’s similar to Drogba,” Gallas told Genting Casino.
“Didier was so strong but with Osimhen, he is also very quick.”
He added, “I am sure he will do a lot of damage in the Premier League.”
