Transfer: Absolutely, he brings spirit – Marcel Desailly advises Chelsea on signing Osimhen

Marcel Desailly, a former Chelsea star, has advised his former club to sign Victor Osimhen from Galatasaray. Osimhen has been a subject of interest for Chelsea and several other top European clubs during this summer's transfer window. In an interview with SportsCasting, Desailly expressed his belief that Osimhen is a strong player who can infuse spirit into the Chelsea squad.

Desailly stated, "Maybe Mateta isn't experienced enough. But Osimhen, absolutely. He brings spirit and respect, strong respect from opponents and from his teammates." Despite Osimhen's occasional unpredictability, Desailly argues that having a player of his stature, who can back up his behavior with performance and handle a certain amount of controversy, is valuable.

Desailly further commented, "He’s strong, and he can bring that spirit to Chelsea. Honestly, I would have brought in a proper number-nine type striker. There aren’t many out there who could help Chelsea in the long run."
