Former Super Eagles star John Obi Mikel has said Chelsea legend Didier Drogba is doing everything possible to bring Victor Osimhen to Stamford Bridge.
Napoli director Giovanni Manna traveled to London for another meeting with Chelsea over Romelu Lukaku.
It is gathered that the ideal scenario for Napoli would be selling Osimhen to Chelsea and at the same time getting Lukaku as part of the deal.
According to Football Italia, multiple sources including Sky Sport Italia, Sportitalia and Calciomercato.com reported that Manna is currently in London for a new meeting with Chelsea and he hopes to get the deal done over the next 24 hours.
While Chelsea value Lukaku at over €40m, Napoli idea would be closer to €30-35m including add-ons.

Osimhen has a release clause in his contract worth €130m, but would probably be prepared to accept nearer to €100m plus bonuses.
In a bid to do everything possible to bring Osimhen to Stamford Bridge, Mikel said he will try and convince Osimhen to sign for Chelsea, disclosing that Drogba is also doing everything possible to make the transfer go through.
“I hope that Chelsea fans will finally see him come to the club,” Football Italia quoted Mikel.
“I’ll make sure I send him those text messages and calls, making sure Chelsea is his top priority.
“But it seems like he loves the club and wants to come to Chelsea. I’m sure he has all the big clubs wanting to sign him. I think if we can secure his signature it would be fantastic for the club.
“Didier is also speaking to him, sharing his own ideas and what the club means to us. We all want to see Victor come to the club. If it happens, it happens. It’s a huge transfer fee, but if we can match it and get him to the club that would be absolutely fantastic.”
