I am a Chelsea fan. I think the way Chelsea has handled this transfer issue with Oshimen is too disrespectful. If Oshimen was white, he wouldn't have been treated this way being priced down and under valued — loaning a top striker like Osimhen with option to buy and re-negotiate a reduced wage is not fair enough deal for him. What if they Chelsea decide not to sign him after the loan? The implication for that is, his market value will greatly diminish.


Osimhen too is somehow too greedy, not compromising enough to accept Chelsea's contract due to reduced wage indicates he is in the business of football to make that money and not for the love/passion of the game.
y wud u call osimhen greedy,es worth d pay.nobi him send Chelsea not to enter Europa league..Chelsea is affected by EPL rules,dats y dey r selling sm of d top earners..
If Chelsea is a serious club.dey wud get him straight. 200pounds per WK isn't bad.e wud av uplifted Chelsea. Chelsea now is in big mess.under roman empire, e wud av signed top players,not these nonsense we av in Chelsea now

Both are recognized globally and as a footballer whatever trophy you won regardless of the country is in your CV okay.

Haaland has always been Haaland with or without KDB, his records at Salzburg, Dortmund and the Norwegian national team proves he is a lethal goal poacher no matter who is behind him.
That's false. Why was Norway not at the last Euro, even with quality Odegaard? And Dortmund then(when Haaland was there) was a poor team? There was Bellingham, Jadon Sancho was at his peak, and then speedy Karim Adeyemi; they almost won the Bundesliga. When Haaland could not score against Madrid ( I don't think he has ever scored against Madrid); European media and Goal.com called him an average striker; I disagreed because a striker is determined by the quality of mid-fielders most times. A season that Ronaldo was highest goal scorer in Spain; Mesut Ozil has more assists than Xavi and Iniesta combined; after that season, Arsenal bought him.

Which Nigerian club can afford Cristiano Ronaldo and Sadio Mane? There are levels; Saudi Arabian league may not equal Europe; it's close enough to make quality players consider their future!

Conte na mumu

A whole Osimehnn no dey Ur plan ....na mumu him be....

Victor is even better than Lukaku.m..

Napoli na the biggest fool tho

They are just bent on spoiling this guy
career....cos I don't understand why...you don't want 80m but 85m for a striker who you do not consider to be part of your footballing plans going forward and whose income happens to be the highest on Ur pay roll ...come on man....this is ridiculous
Very Ridiculous....i can understand victor Nd his agent frustration over this matter now....

Chelsea were also crazy...but I don't blame them. they were only trying to take advantage of the situation..they offered him 4m ...less than half of his current salary..to double the figure next season if they qualify for UCL.. that's ridiculous too ...

He wouldn't want less....so he opted for the Saudi Arabian club...now Napoli frustrated the deal with their pettiness.....now the SA club don go buy Ivan Toney whose pricetag is way way less.

May God help him..
As in I thought I was the only one that was seeing the deliberate attempt of sabotaging the osihmen move
That was why brendford and I on toney just lashed on and dumped Chelsea for the Saudi deal

While on the other hand lukaku has suffered and really needed the Napoli move(thanks to conte)

Like you said God help him

Can you put forward Haaland stats by number of games played let's start the argument from there, Norway was not at the Euro as they didn't qualify. Haaland left Dortmund long before Bellingham's peak season and please check JUDE'S assists record while Haaland was there, was Adeyemi creating chances for Haaland ? A player that has never hit 6 assists in a season in his entire career, and please do well to mention the world class midfielders that made Haaland a great goal scorer at Salzburg.

What happened to the deal to Chelsea

Was it osimhen or Napoli?
Both of them...
Re: Chelsea Calls Off Pursuit, Osimhen to remain in Napoli by judedwriter(m): 11:48am On Aug 31, 2024
Osimhen will wait out to January to play in champions league, while collecting free salary from Napoli...

It's a risk, but he should have took a lesser salary to Chelsea.

Listen, I'm not saying that Haaland is not a good striker; my point is people should not say Osimhen is an average striker because of Afcon and Napoli's last season. Osimhen is a quality striker; he is better than Lukaku. Napoli just prefer Kvaratskhelia to him for reasons known to them. Norway wasn't at the Euros because one quality striker alone cannot do the job. There was also Marco Reus at Dortmund! At Salzburg, I found that he played with Minamino, Adeyemi, Dominik Szoboszlai; arguably not world class (what I expect you to say); but they were good enough for the Austrian league, occasionally causing shocks in the champions league. A striker needs quality mid-fielders; there was a time De Bruyne was injured last season, and the goals dipped for Haaland.

Let him stay back at Napoli, amend his ways, make restitution and earn back a place in that team.
That Saudi 4yrs deal will be a big clog in the wheel of his career. My submission
If you have the chance to

1. Stay in Europe and retire in 10 years with 60 to 80m that is not guaranteed (cos you may get injured or your form drops)

Or

2. Go to Saudi and clear guaranteed 160m (net of taxes) in four years and then retire and enjoy life or even continue playing on your terms while making more cash.

Which one you go choose? Think am well o.

He has everything to lose, at 25 and just hitting peak form playing regular crucial to his career.
He is not going to be on the bench as he is not part of the first team because he wasn't registered by Napoli for the new season, sitting out a full season will affect his valuation and won't be able to command such astronomical salaries in any future transfer.
By the way he is not going to be paid full salaries as all bonueses and other benefits will not be paid to him, only his basic salary.
His basic is 12m and bonus 2m. So what’s your point? He will cry because he forfeited 2m?

Dude has nothing to lose
Oh he his the biggest loser in all this, bye bye to a supposedly bright career. Should have left after he won the title with Napoli. And then he foolishly signed a contract extension. Who does that? Then it's very obvious Napoli are all out to wicked him, I mean they already agreed price with Saudi and he also agreed personal terms, they now turned around and demanded €5M extra angering Al ahli hence reason they pulled out and bought Ivan instead.

You nailed it, used to be a Chelsea fan until todd bohely era, Chelsea were never interested in signing a striker in the first place, they choose to put their faith in Jackson. All the best to them on that gamble, Secondly Napoli where very wicked to osihmen, they had already agreed a deal with Al ahli, the player also agreed personal terms, Napoli then decided to make a U turn and demanded 5m more, that is nothing other than wickedness in the highest place. Osihmen caused all this for himself. He should have left when he scored so much goals for them, rather he turned around to sign a contract renewal.
