A final decision in the Victor Osimhen transfer saga has reportedly been made amid intense transfer speculation.

Osimhen has been heavily linked with a move away from Napoli this summer.

His name dominated the transfer rumour mills ahead of the window slamming shut.

Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain and Al Ahli were all thought to be interested in signing the star forward this summer.

But, according to RMC Sport reporter Fabrice Hawkins, Osimhen WON'T be joining Chelsea and will STAY at Napoli in a stunning twist.

Fabrizio Romano also stated that Chelsea failed to agree terms with Osimhen despite proposing a new offer.

However, according to Sky Italia, Antonio Conte will not bring him back into the squad, so he'll be left in the stands.

Napoli, though, will call upon the services of Romelu Lukaku following his £30 million move from Chelsea.

It remains to be seen whether a move away from Napoli will be reignited during the January transfer window.

Osimhen scored 17 goals in all competitions last season, having bagged an impressive 31 goals in the 2022/23 campaign.

He's yet to feature for Napoli this season, having failed to make either matchday squads for the club's opening two Serie A games.

The Italian side, meanwhile, have also acquired Scott McTominay from Manchester United and Billy Gilmour from Brighton.
