Chelsea Plotting To Land Boniface As Osimhen’s Next Club Is Revealed

English Premier League club Chelsea are desperately trying to land the transfer of Super Eagles striker Victor Boniface from Bayer Leverkusen in the summer.

This is even as claims have emerged from a very reliable source that Victor Osimhen will join Juventus next season

On Boniface, since Todd Boehly and the Blue Lake Consortium took over at Chelsea, the club have adopted a transfer policy of signing talented young players from other top leagues across Europe.

That policy has seen a horde of players join the club. In the last two years. The latest player on their radar is Super Eagles striker Boniface.

The 24-year-old striker has contributed 31 goals and 11 assists for Bayer Leverkusen since he joined two seasons ago and this has attracted attention from various top European clubs.

Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr also tried to lure Boniface away in January, but the transfer fell through.

Now, according to reports from Blue Footy, Chelsea are desperate to secure Boniface’s signature by the summer transfer window.

Boniface is valued at €45 million on Transfermarkt, but Bayer Leverkusen could demand as high as €60 million before they sanction the deal.

Meanwhile, former Italy international Roberto Pruzzo has claimed that Victor Osimhen will join Juventus next season, amid growing interest from PSG, Arsenal and Manchester United.

Osimhen, currently on loan at Galatasaray from Napoli, has enjoyed a prolific spell in Turkey, but reports linking him with a return to Serie A are gathering momentum.

Speaking on Radio Radio via TMW, AS Roma Hall of Famer Pruzzo revealed that a reliable source close to the player had confirmed Osimhen’s move to Turin is all but sealed.

“I know that the next Juventus striker will be Osimhen. A reliable source, close to his circle, revealed it to me in Florence. They are sure that he will go to Turin next year,” said Pruzzo.
