Chelsea identify player to sign as Osimhen’s alternative

Chelsea are reportedly considering a transfer move for Girona’s Artem Dovbyk as a short-term alternative for their long-term target, Victor Osimhen.

Osimhen looks highly unlikely to join Chelsea this January transfer window after he recently signed a new deal with Napoli.

According to the Sun (via Teamtalk), the Blues are keen to bring Dovbyk to Stamford Bridge this January.

Dovbyk has been impressive for Girona in the La Liga this season.

He has scored 11 goals and provided five assists in 17 games this term.

His contract with the La Liga club will expire in 2028 which would make him costly but not as much as Osimhen.

Chelsea could make do with a player like Dovbyk as they have continued to struggle for goals this season.

Mauricio Pochettino’s side have also been linked with Brentford’s Ivan Toney.
