Chelsea may not pursue a marquee striker during the summer transfer window, according to Sky Sports.
The Blues have been linked with several high-profile names over the past year. Napoli’s Victor Osimhen was a top target at the start of the season.
However, there is reportedly a change in transfer strategy. The club are prepared to trust Nicolas Jackson as their first-choice striker next term.
Instead of replacing him, the west London giants want to pursue a deputy, who can play second fiddle to the former Villarreal man next season.
The news may not go well with Chelsea fans, considering the Blues have been misfiring in front of goal for a subsequent period of time.
The club have been overreliant on Cole Palmer over the past 21 months, but the Englishman’s form has also nosedived since the turn of the year.
In our view, the Blues should make a fresh swoop for Osimhen, who has amassed 28 goals from 32 games on loan at Galatasaray this term.
