JAKARTA - Chelsea are indeed active in this summer's transfer market. However, the Blues have lost their main target.
Chelsea's last attempt to recruit Victor Osimhen failed due to a wild request by Napoli.
According to Sky Sports, Chelsea made their final offer to Osimhen in the last hours of the stock exchange, but received no response from the striker.
In fact, there are reports that Chelsea officials flew to Naples on Friday, August 30, 2024, to persuade Osimhen to join.

Osimhen will only join a salary of 500,000 per week. This figure does not want Chelsea or Al-Ahli to pay, who also want the Nigerian striker.
Chelsea initially hoped Osimhen would approve an incentive-based package with Todd Boehly, a Blues official, having introduced a salary structure to reduce expenses. In fact, that's not the case.
The problem is, Chelsea's failure to attract Osimhen actually angered the fans. The reason is, the new salary structure makes the Blues only offer the striker a salary of 130,000 pounds per week.
Meanwhile, the alternative target of Osimhen's replacement is also free from your grasp. Ivan Toney chose to return to Saudi Arabia's Pro League club, Al Expert on the last day of the stock exchange.
In the last minute of the stock exchange, Chelsea could only secure Jadon Sancho as a loan player from Manchester United.
Sancho was released with a clause obliged to buy a permanent next season. The 24-year-old's arrival coincided with Raheem Sterling's release to Arsenal on loan.
