Chelsea’s transfer business has been pure chaos since the Clearlake takeover of the west London club, and this summer has been no exception.

Nine new signings have been made in the transfer window with 26-year-old Tosin Adarabioyo the oldest out of the lot, with Chelsea again putting a huge emphasis on spending big money on wonderkids who could turn out good in the future.

As for Arsenal, just the one signing has been made this summer in the former of Riccardo Calafiori, with the Gunners still chasing Mikel Merino as Mikel Arteta prepares to challenge for the Premier League title once again.

Yet Chelsea could be about to beat Arsenal to a top player this summer.

Chelsea now have golden ticket to sign Arsenal target Victor Osimhen

According to iNews, PSG are likely to miss out on the signing of Victor Osimhen, opening the door for Chelsea to have a free run at the Napoli striker before the closure of the transfer window.

With Arsenal also interested in signing Osimhen, Chelsea beating the Gunners to yet another top transfer target would be a kick in the teeth for the north London side, especially considering how needed another world-class attacker is for Arteta.

Hailed as ‘one of the very best players in world football’ by pundit Adriano Del Monte, the Nigerian international could be the final piece of the puzzle for Arsenal in their bid to win the Premier League title.

Which is why it would be such a hammer blow for the Gunners if Chelsea ended up signing Osimhen, who could now prefer a move to Arsenal considering their status in the Premier League and growing European reputation.

Arsenal can’t allow Osimhen to join Chelsea this summer

Chelsea’s track record with signing strikers in recent years has been well documented as one of the most disappointing transfer streaks in the Premier League, with the Blues yet to really move on from the likes of Didier Drogba and Diego Costa.

And with Osimhen as good as he is, the striker ending up at Chelsea could be another disaster waiting to happen, especially with Arsenal the more ideal club for the Napoli superstar this summer.

With the Gunners in the market for a world-class striker, it makes sense for the north London side to move for Osimhen, who could thrive under Arteta and help Arsenal in their goal of finally winning the Premier League.
