Malouda stated, “We [Chelsea] need a striker that scores 20 or more a season. Osimhen is the kind of player who can do that.” He further highlighted the importance of securing experienced players who can adapt to the team’s playing style, suggesting that Osimhen fits this profile perfectly. “The links with Chelsea are strong. We’ve had brilliant African footballers in the past, and Osimhen can be the next generation of African players at Chelsea,” Malouda added.
Currently on loan at Turkish Super Lig champions Galatasaray, Osimhen has been in exceptional form, scoring 33 goals across all competitions this season. His impressive performances have attracted interest from several top clubs, making him a sought-after talent in the upcoming transfer window.
Malouda’s endorsement adds weight to Chelsea’s reported interest in Osimhen, as the club looks to strengthen its squad ahead of the new season. With the transfer window approaching, Chelsea fans will be eager to see if the club acts on this recommendation and secures the services of the highly-rated striker.
