Prominent Nigerian prophet Primate Elijah Ayodele has advised Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen against transferring to Chelsea. In a recent video, Ayodele warned that joining the London club could negatively impact Osimhen’s career. He urged Osimhen to reconsider the move, suggesting it might hinder his performance and growth.
Ayodele also recommended that the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) should be cautious about including Osimhen in the national team if he joins Chelsea. He emphasized that the NFF should evaluate their decision on calling up Osimhen more carefully, considering the team’s potential for upcoming tournaments like the World Cup and Nations Cup.
Chelsea is actively pursuing Osimhen to boost their attacking options, especially after failing to sign Atletico Madrid’s Samuel Omorodion. Despite interest from other top European clubs like Arsenal, PSG, Manchester United, and Liverpool, Chelsea remains determined to secure the Nigerian striker’s services.
