I Hope Victor Osimhen Joins Chelsea – Mikel Obi

Former Chelsea midfielder, John Mikel Obi, has expressed optimism about the possibility of Victor Osimhen joining the London-based club in the upcoming transfer window.

The ex-Nigeria international believes that the Napoli striker possesses the qualities needed to excel in the Premier League.

Mikel spoke highly of Osimhen's potential fit in the English top flight, stating, "I think he [Victor Osimhen] does slot seamlessly into the Premier League. He's got the tools to be a success in England." In the latest podcast, Mikel shared his insights into Osimhen's abilities and how they align with the demands of Premier League clubs.

Reflecting on Osimhen's progress over the years, Mikel admitted that his perspective had evolved. He continued, "When I look back at him a few years ago, I would say 'no.' But now, watching him last season and watching him this season, I would say definitely." Mikel emphasized Osimhen's attributes, such as his goal-scoring prowess, ability to run behind defenders, and capacity to stretch opposing teams, which are highly sought-after qualities in the Premier League.

Mikel expressed his wish for Osimhen to join Chelsea, but he acknowledged that the striker is reportedly a target for Manchester United. He concluded, "I hope you come to Chelsea. But from the noises that I hear, he is a big United. But I hope he comes to Chelsea, really."

John Mikel Obi's endorsement of Victor Osimhen's Premier League potential and his preference for Chelsea reflect the excitement surrounding the Nigerian striker's future in one of the world's most competitive football leagues.

Coco Gauff Advances To The Quarter-Finals Of The Beijing Open, Extending Her Amazing Winning Streak.

Coco Gauff extended her winning streak on the WTA Tour to 15 matches this season after defeating Veronika Kudermetova 7-6(5) 6-2 in the third round of the China Open on Thursday.

Gauff’s most recent setback came in the quarter-finals of the Montreal Open following her victory in Washington, and the 19-year-old has been an unstoppable force ever since, capturing the Cincinnati title and her first Grand Slam title at her home US Open.

In her Beijing debut, the world number three defeated Ekaterina Alexandrova then struggled past Petra Martic.

She played a determined opening set against Kudermetova, laying the groundwork for her second career victory against the Tokyo champion.

“I’m really happy with how I’ve been able to manage. I had trouble finding the way I wanted to play in these conditions. I felt like the balls were flying in the first match and playing passive in the second,” Gauff said.

Gauff will next face sixth seed Maria Sakkari in a replay of their title match in Washington.
