Marcel Desailly Urges Chelsea to Sign Victor Osimhen After Galatasaray Goal Rush
Former Chelsea defender Marcel Desailly has urged the club to revive its interest in Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen before the transfer window closes. Desailly believes Chelsea need a natural number nine following the departures of Liam Delap and Nicolas Jackson. He said Osimhen would bring presence, respect and an unpredictable edge to the Blues’ attack. Osimhen has started the 2026/27 Turkish Super Lig season strongly for Galatasaray, recording five goals and two assists in his first three league appearances. His latest display included a goal and the winning assist in a 3-2 victory over Goztepe. With reports suggesting the Nigerian remains open to a Premier League return, Desailly believes Chelsea should make another attempt to sign him.
