Former Super Eagles caption, John Obi Mikel, has revealed reasons for appealing to Victor Osimhen to join Chelsea.
Osimhen is expected to cost his next club as much as €130million, which is the value of his release clause.
Mikel Obi admits that the Blues face interest from Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain.
Mikel said at the Web Summit Qatar: “I think there’s genuine interest between both (Chelsea and Osimhen).
“I think he loves the club, he wants to come to the club, obviously he wants to follow in my footsteps as a Nigerian player who has played for Chelsea, like Victor Moses, Celestine Babayaro, there’s not a lot of us.
“But he also has a lot of interest, like PSG, Man United, but I’m still pushing, sending him messages, trying to make sure he doesn’t expect too much, just narrow your mind on one club: The Blues!”
