Former Chelsea star: ‘Leaving Victor Osimhen would be a catastrophic mistake’

John Obi Mikel, who once wore Chelsea jersey and Trabzonspor jersey in our country, made statements about Victor Osimhen.

John Obi Mikel said: ‘The thought of Osimhen wearing another shirt would be absolutely devastating. Considering the ties we have built between myself, the club and Victor, it would be a disastrous mistake to let him go.

John Obi Mikel said Osimhen would be the perfect signing for Chelsea: ‘Look at the way he plays, that hunger, that fire... He plays every week with goals and assists. That's exactly what we need right now!’ he said.

Speaking about Osimhen, Mikel continued: ‘Osimhen is not just a transfer target. Victor grew up supporting our team. Didier Drogba was his idol. I've said it before, this boy has blue in his blood. His heart is at Stamford Bridge.

Mikel said that the transfer of the Nigerian star could happen very quickly, ‘To be honest, it can be done very quickly. Just a phone call and a few days of paperwork. Everything is done on my side, now it's their turn.
