This comes after previous reports stating that Chelsea  and Napoli were working on finalising Lukaku deal even before finding a solution to sell Victor Osimhen.

Osimhen had been linked with a move to the Blues in recent weeks, with reports stating that the deal would have an effect on Lukaku’s potential move to Napoli.

However, the Belgian is just a step away from making a move to Napoli, while Victor Osimhen’s future remains uncertain.
