Chelsea is reportedly intensifying their pursuit of Brentford striker Ivan Toney as the summer transfer window nears its closure. The Blues are keen on acquiring the 28-year-old forward, although they may struggle to match the lucrative salary offer from Al Ahli. Brentford could be willing to part ways with Toney for a fee close to £40 million, making him a prime target for Chelsea.
In addition to Toney, Chelsea is also setting their sights on Napoli's Victor Osimhen. The 25-year-old Nigerian forward is on the radar of the Stamford Bridge outfit, with an official offer expected to be tabled soon. Competition for Osimhen's signature is anticipated, with Paris Saint-Germain also expressing interest in securing his services.
