Great disappointment for Chelsea as ace is sidelined until December.

Chelsea hasn’t really had much to shout about in the 2023–24 Premier League season so far, with the exception of a solid performance at Fulham.

In order to give Mauricio Pochettino’s “project” the best chance of succeeding before Todd Boehly, who is prone to making snap decisions, decides to yank the plug and look elsewhere, the Blues have had to take drastic measures.

The club is arguably not where the Chelsea manager would have expected it to be, sitting in 11th place with only two wins in seven games, but if the Argentinian is given time, his record suggests that he can and most likely will produce success.

He really needs to, given that he’s already spent £115 million on Moises Caicedo alone, according to The Guardian (subscription required).

Chelsea’s early development under Pochettino has been hampered by injuries, so the news that Ben Chilwell has now been ruled out until at least December isn’t one he will have wanted to hear.

Chilwell will be fighting to make it to the holiday games because, according to The Daily Mail, his hamstring injury will keep him out for eight weeks.

Naturally, this is assuming that the left-back’s recovery process goes without any obstacles.

At least Marc Cucurella is available for Pochettino to use, who might have been playing for Man United in another set of circumstances.

A significant Napoli statement is released by Victor Osimhen amid transfer rumors involving Arsenal and Chelsea.

A significant Napoli statement is released by Victor Osimhen amid transfer rumors involving Arsenal and Chelsea.

Victor Osimhen, who has been linked to a transfer away from Napoli, has released a statement regarding his current situation there.

In light of uncertainty surrounding his future at Napoli and a dispute within the team’s ranks, Victor Osimhen has released a significant statement on his situation.

Azzurri on their way to winning the Serie A title, the striker has been one of the best in Europe in recent seasons.
He scored many goals for them.

The Nigerian international has a talent for scoring goals, putting his body on the line both literally and figuratively to do so.
He is currently required to play with a mask after sustaining multiple facial fractures.
There have been difficulties before this campaign, both on and off the field.

Napoli has had a slow start to the season, winning just four of their first seven Serie A games and currently holding the third-place spot in the race for the title. Off the field, there is growing uncertainty regarding Osimhen’s future and what it might hold.

At the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium, the forward’s contract has just under two years left to run, and there has been no indication that it will be extended.

As a result of the player’s entourage’s ire over a TikTok video posted by the official Napoli account, there are also rising tensions within their ranks.

In a statement, Osimhen’s agent hinted that the club might face legal action because of the offensive themes present.
A number of top teams around the world have been linked to a switch, which has increased talk of a potential transfer exit in the coming year or so.

Arsenal is one of those teams that has added a few strikers recently but hasn’t always had the winning edge. Osimhen has been suggested as a solution, but it is unclear whether it is both stylistically and financially feasible.

Chelsea, which has been seeking a reliable goal scorer for several years, can be seen across London.

The Osimhen saga may change if Mauricio Pochettino is given even more financial clout in the transfer market.

Despite these connections, the striker has issued a statement regarding his present circumstances at Napoli and his future.

He posted on social media, saying: “Choosing to move to the City of Naples in 2020 was a fantastic choice for me.

I am so grateful to the people of Naples for their love and kindness, and I will not let anyone stand in our way.

“The fervor of the People of Naples fuels my fire to always play with my heart and soul, and the love for the badge is unfailing as I wear it with pride,” the speaker said. People of Naples has been falsely accused. I have many Napolitan friends who have integrated themselves into my family and way of life.
I am grateful for the support and outreach that Nigerians and everyone else have given me.

“I’m always appreciative.
Let’s encourage harmony, esteem, and comprehension.
GO FORZA NAPOLI SEMPRE
