Ex-Everton CEO Touts Osimhen as Game-Changer for Chelsea
Keith Wyness, Everton’s former chief, has expressed confidence in Chelsea’s potential acquisition of Victor Osimhen, suggesting that it could mark a significant success in the transfer market for the club’s chairman Todd Boehly. Wyness, who now provides consultancy for top football clubs, sees the Nigerian striker as a catalyst for Chelsea’s resurgence.
Osimhen’s Goal-Scoring Prowess
With an impressive record of 76 goals in 133 club appearances since his move to Napoli from Lille in 2020, Osimhen has demonstrated his ability to find the back of the net. Wyness believes that Osimhen’s arrival could see him competing for the Golden Boot and helping Chelsea fight for a top-four finish in the Premier League.
Chelsea’s Transfer Strategy
The London club is reportedly engaged in negotiations for a deal involving a cash-plus-player exchange with Napoli, potentially including Romelu Lukaku. This comes after Chelsea’s recent high-profile signings like Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo have yet to make their expected impact. Wyness, however, is convinced that Osimhen is the right investment for Chelsea to make.
Boosting Team Morale and Performance
Wyness envisions Osimhen’s arrival not only elevating his own game but also enhancing the performances of other squad members, such as Mykhailo Mudryk. The anticipation of Osimhen’s signing is creating a buzz around Stamford Bridge, with hopes that it could be the turning point for the team’s success.
Chelsea’s Transfer Trajectory
The former Everton CEO’s endorsement of Osimhen points to a positive direction for Chelsea’s transfer dealings, as the club appears to be closing in on a deal that could have a transformative effect on their season and beyond.
