Transfer: Babayaro urges Osimhen, Lookman to join Chelsea

Former Nigeria international, Celestine Babayaro says Victor Osimhen and Ademola Lookman would be perfect signings for Chelsea.

Osimhen and Lookman are expected to swap clubs at the end of the current campaign.

Forward Osimhen is into final months of his loan deal with Turkish Super Lig champions, Galatasaray.

The 26-year-old has a €75m release clause in his contract and his parent club, Napoli are willing to allow leave this summer.

Lookman has caught the eye after another stellar season at Serie A club, Atalanta.

The 27-year-old is reportedly available for around €60m.

“Lookman and Osimhen would fit in perfectly at Chelsea,” Babayaro told AfricaFoot.

“It’s obvious they would have an immediate impact there if signed. Look, we’re talking about two of the best strikers in Europe right now. African players have always excelled at Chelsea, and these two would be no different.”
