Chelsea considering Girona striker as Osimhen replacement
Chelsea are monitoring Girona's Artem Dovvik as they look for a potential replacement for Victor Osimhen this summer.
Despite investing heavily last summer, the Blues have had another difficult season and face the possibility of missing out on European football for the second year in a row.
Although Mauricio Pochettino's side have improved in front of goal compared to last season, they still lack a quality centre-forward, an issue the club will address this summer.
Chelsea's main target to fill the centre-forward position is reportedly Napoli's Osimhen, with a release clause thought to be around £113m.
Manager Todd Boley wants to bring the Nigerian to Stamford Bridge this summer, with Chelsea having African players such as Didier Drogba, John Obi Mikel, Michael Essien and Salomon Kalou. There is a long history with the players, all of whom achieved great success in west London. The Blues will face competition for the Nigeria international this summer, but PSG are interested in the striker as they look to rebuild following Kylian Mbappé's inevitable move to Real Madrid. It is reported that there are.
GIVEMESPORT reports that Chelsea are keeping an eye on Dobvik, who has established himself as one of Spain's best strikers this season, as Girona aim to qualify for the Champions League.
The Ukrainian striker has scored 16 goals in 28 La Liga games, making him joint top scorer with Jude Bellingham.
Chelsea have also been linked with signings Victor Gokeres from Sporting Lisbon, Benjamin Sesco from RB Leipzig and Ivan Toney from Brentford.
