Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has shared some details on Chelsea and Manchester United target Victor Osimhen. He reported that despite major interest, no Premier League club would be willing to meet the striker’s wage demands this summer.

Osimhen has been linked with a move away from Napoli since last summer. He was linked with Chelsea, Manchester United, and Paris Saint-Germain, among other clubs. However, a deal couldn’t materialize, and he joined Galatasaray on loan for the 2024-25 season.

He could now be on the move permanently this summer, with Premier League clubs still interested. However, Romano has reported that for a move to take place, Osimhen will have take a wage cut. He said (via Football Transfers):

“He wants the same salary he’s earning at Napoli — €12m net, plus commissions and his €75m release clause. No English club is ready to pay him €12m net.”

As per Football Transfers, both Manchester United and Chelsea are highly unlikely to break their wage structure despite their interest in Osimhen. Both sides also have other strikers on their list for a potential summer move.

Osimhen has been excellent for Galatasaray this season, scoring 30 goals and providing seven assists in 35 games across competitions. His contract with Napoli has a €75 million release clause this summer.

Kieran McKenna on Chelsea and Manchester United target Liam Delap’s future

Ipswich Town’s relegation from the Premier League this season was confirmed after their 3-0 defeat at Newcastle United on Saturday. Following this, there is speculation about the futures of some of their players, mainly Liam Delap. Chelsea and Manchester United are among the clubs interested in signing him.

After the Newcastle game, Ipswich head coach Kieran McKenna spoke about Delap’s future, saying (via GOAL):

“Liam’s focus is still here and finishing the season as strong as possible. As I’ve said before, I think there’s certainly a possibility that he’s an Ipswich player next year. I don’t think anything’s decided in anyone’s mind.

“But can Liam play for the biggest clubs in the country, the biggest clubs in the world? He certainly can. I fully believe that. He’s already shown the impact he can have at Premier League level in a team that have really been fighting for everything. I think he can have an outstanding impact at this level.”

Delap has scored 12 goals and provided two assists in 33 Premier League games this season. With Ipswich’s relegation confirmed, he would reportedly be available for £30 million this summer.
