Chelsea’s move for Atletico Madrid’s Nigeria-eligible striker Samuel Omorodion has reportedly broken down, and it is said to have sparked life into the Blues’ move for Napoli’s Victor Osimhen.

The 20-year-old was set for a move to the Premier League after Chelsea reached an agreement with Atletico Madrid in the region of €35 million for the Spanish youngster.

The deal involved the transfer of Conor Gallagher to Atletico Madrid, and while the Englishman is already in Spain, Chelsea had not advanced much on personal terms with Omorodion, as the striker was at the Olympics.

Following the completion of the Olympics and Spain’s gold medal win, the negotiations resumed, and it has now been said to have hit a halt. Unspecified complications in the fine print were said to have caused the breakdown in talks, and the move will no longer materialise.
