Chelsea legend, Craig Burley has asked the club to sign Super Eagles of Nigeria striker, Victor Osimhen to partner Christopher Nkunku in Blues’ attack.

He believes that Napoli’s Osimhen and RB Leipzig’s Nkunku will cause a lot of scare on Premier League defences.

The 25-year-old Nkunku is reportedly on his way to west London next summer and is only awaiting official confirmation from the club.

Chelsea still want to strengthen their forward line by targeting Napoli centre-forward Osimhen.

90min reported last month that Osimhen was top of Graham Potter’s wish list for the No.9 position.

Burley told ESPN he loves the idea of an Osimhen-Nkunku strike partnership at Stamford Bridge next season.

“I think him (Nkunku) and Osimhen would scare the living daylights out of people… can you imagine,” Burley said.

“I don’t know if he would leave Napoli, but you’re not getting him until the summer at the earliest.” Dailypost

LaLiga giants, Real Madrid have joined the race to sign Victor Osimhen from Napoli, according to Mundo Deportivo.

The Spanish newspaper claims Los Blancos have identified the Super Eagles striker as a possible option to Borussia Dortmund’s Erling Haaland.

Real will make Osimhen their top priority if they can’t sign Haaland this coming summer.

Osimhen has been in impressive form this current campaign, scoring 11 goals in 22 matches for the Serie A side, despite missing almost two months of action after a cheekbone injury last November.

Napoli have reportedly put an 80 million euros price tag on one of his most outstanding players.

Two Premier League sides Arsenal and Manchester are also interested in Osimhen. Dailypost

Super Eagles captain, Ahmed Musa, has spoken of his pride at making his 100th appearance.

Musa achieved the milestone during Nigeria’s 2-0 win over the Central African Republic on Sunday.

The 28-year-old becomes only the third centurion in the senior national team, one short of Joseph Yobo and Vincent Enyeama, who both made 101 appearances each.

Musa thought he had reached the 100th mark against Cape Verde in September.

However, FIFA said his appearances against Togo in June 2017 and Algeria in November 2017 did not count.

According to FIFA, the friendly against the Hawks was not recognised by the world football governing body, while the World Cup qualifier against the Desert Foxes was cancelled as Nigeria fielded an ineligible player.

After today’s game against CAR, Musa posted on Instagram: “Wow! What can I say? I wouldn’t have been able to achieve this without the support of my family, teammates, officials, and my fans.

“To crown it all, important three points in our game. Thank you so much, I don’t take any of this for granted. We will continue to make history and secure wins.” Dailypost
