Petit Backs Osimhen to End Chelsea’s Striker Woes

Former Chelsea midfielder Emmanuel Petit says Victor Osimhen has the personality and power to lift the club’s long-standing striker curse. Petit was surprised the Nigerian forward chose Galatasaray over a Premier League move after leaving Napoli. He points to Osimhen’s 20 goals and seven assists this season and his role in Galatasaray’s domestic double as proof of his quality. The Frenchman believes Osimhen’s physicality, aggression and winning mentality would make him a perfect fit for the intensity of English football and could finally give Chelsea a reliable number nine.
