Todd Boehly isn’t worried about Napoli’s £133m valuation of Man Utd target Victor Osimhen because he reckons he can chuck in Romelu Lukaku – and others – in part-exchange…
CHELSEA MAKE OSIMHEN No.1 TARGET
Manchester United are said to be considering whether to move first for Harry Kane or Victor Osimhen in the summer. It seems Chelsea have already made their decision over which striker to prioritise…
90min says the Blues have made Osimhen their primary target for 2023, with Napoli’s valuation of £133million apparently not worrying Todd Boehly. Especially not while he thinks he can throw in a few surplus players in part-exchange.

SPURS EYE ENGLAND DEFENDER
Tottenham have been credited with an interest in Bastoni but they are looking a little closer to home for a centre-back…
The Evening Standard says Antonio Conte is considering a move for Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi. Spurs have been watching the England international since he moved to Selhurst Park from Chelsea in 2021 – but the Blues could pose a threat to Conte’s plans.
