Victor Osimhen and ‘agent’ Didier Drogba’s AFCON moment gets Chelsea fans excited

Chelsea supporters are hopeful that Didier Drogba’s hug with Victor Osimhen will help them in their pursuit of signing the Nigerian.

Osimhen left his club to captain his country in the Africa Cup of Nations. He is now regarded as one of Europe’s best marksmen because to his achievements with Napoli, and Chelsea is just one of the many teams eager to add him to their roster.

In addition to being a legendary player in Africa, Drogba will live on in Stamford Bridge history because to his incredible 2012 Champions League performance. Osimhen’s team defeated the hosts, Ivory Coast, 1-0, in their encounter yesterday.

Drogba and Osimhen met in the tunnel prior to the competition and gave each other a short hug. With Napoli’s star player on their radar, Chelsea supporters are now hopeful that the Ivorian made a positive impression for the Blues as they look to fix their forward issues.

“Telling to come to Chelsea,” a supporter remarked. Drogba, super agent.” Then someone else said, “Didier Drogba, please convince him to join Chelsea.” A third person commented, “Osimhen to Chelsea looks done imo (in my opinion)”.

Recently, the Nigerian signed a new contract with Naples that will keep him with the team until 2026 and has a €120 million release clause. Chelsea would then have to smash their transfer record once more in order to get OSHIMEN signature

The player himself has outlined his ambition to eventually play in the Premier League but maintains he is happy where he is. “Of course one day, definitely,” he told Sky Sports when asked if he wants to play in the Premier League. “But for now, I have other plans in my career that I am looking forward to. So when the time comes, everyone knows.”

Osimhen also added: “I am happy with the president. I have a good relationship with him. I cannot lie. He has been with me since I signed for the club in 2020. I have a good relationship with his family also and for me it is always important to make sure we have this good relationship, to make sure there is nothing wrong regardless of what has happened.

“So for me, he has been the kind of president who has been supportive to me outside the pitch and of course, I make sure I give my all and try to win the Scudetto for them. For me, it is always important to have this kind of relationship, to be happy with the owner of the club.”
