Chelsea have been linked with a move for the Super Eagles star following his impressive performance for Napoli this season.
Super Eagles star Victor Osimhen may have left a bad first impression on one of his potential suitors, Chelsea.
Osimhen has been linked with a move away from Napoli after a record-breaking season, which saw him lead the Neapolitans to their first league title in 33 years.
Osimhen's record-breaking season
The Nigeria international spearheaded Napoli’s title triumph, scoring 23 goals and setting up another five as Luciano Spalletti’s men won the title with five games to spare.
Osimhen currently leads Serie A’s scoring charts, with 23 league goals in 29 matches for Napoli this season.

As a result, Osimhen’s form has caught the attention of Europe’s top clubs, who are set to go into a bidding war for the Nigerian when the transfer window opens this summer.

Monza vs Napoli: 2 records Osimhen’s Partenopei are still chasing
Victor Osimhen and Napoli have had an excellent campaign in Serie A, but after a sweet revenge for Monza begs the question, how many more records can they break this season?
Manchester United, Paris Saint-Germain, Bayern Munich and Newcastle have all been linked with a move for the Nigerian.
Osimhen drops a stinker in front of Chelsea
Chelsea are also linked, but the Blues may pull out as Osimhen did not impress the club’s scouts.
The Premier League side sent two of their representatives to watch Osimhen against Monza, but the Nigerian striker dropped his worst performance of the season as Napoli suffered a 2-0 defeat.

However, Osimhen is still on the radar of top European clubs this summer despite his display against Monza.

Osimhen could leave Napoli at the end of the season, with Europe's top clubs ready to pounce on his services this summer.
But the Neapolitans are adamant that the Nigerian is not for sale unless they receive a monumental offer for his services.
Osimhen still has two years left on his contract in Naples, having joined the club from Lille in 2020 for a club-record fee of €75.00m.
