Chelsea’s pursuit of Atletico Madrid youngster Samu Omorodion has “closed the door” on Victor Osimhen moving to Stamford Bridge this summer. Meanwhile, Arsenal are still monitoring the deal closely, according to Sky’s Gianluca Di Marzio.

The Italian journalist also claims that Paris Saint-Germain are also interested in Osimhen , who is expected to leave Napoli after being left out of Antonio Conte’s squad during pre-season.

The 25-year-old, who has a release clause of around £110m, is now waiting to hear whether he will be called up for Napoli’s first game of the season.

Osimhen’s agent Roberto Calenda has confirmed that if Osimhen leaves Napoli this summer, he will not consider a loan move.

According to Il Mattino, Osimhen is currently prioritizing a move to PSG and the two parties have reached personal agreements.

The Nigerian striker scored 15 goals and provided three assists in 25 Serie A appearances for Napoli last season.
