Knight Barida Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 Victor Osimhen, the current African footballer of the year, rejected the proposal by Chelsea to join them this summer after differences in wage demands. Do you consider this a wrong decision by him since Lukaku has now joined Napoli as the first choice striker or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 To be fair, he was being offered 68k which is way less than most squad players at other major clubs make so that's really low in my opinion. He's one of the most coveted strikers in Europe despite his bad season so if Chelsea had offered something like 150 to 200k, he'd have likely accepted that.

The wage was damn poor for a good player. Now he has gone to Galatarasy in Turkey and I wish him the very best in that place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
