Chelsea miss out on BOTH top transfer targets within minutes of each other as Al-Ahli splash £300m on Toney and Osimhen
CHELSEA have reportedly missed out on both of their top targets with Ivan Toney and Victor Osimhen set to join Al-Ahli in a £300million double transfer.
The two strikers were on Chelsea’s shopping list heading into deadline day.
But the Mirror and Sky Sports claim both Toney and Osimhen will now head to Saudi Arabia to spearhead Al-Ahli’s attack this season.
Bees star Toney had entered the final year of his contract in London.
The situation saw Chelsea emerge as late suitors in Enzo Maresca’s quest for a new striker.
However, Toney has now agreed a four-year deal to move to the Middle East.
He will earn a staggering £100m during his time in Saudi, with Al-Ahli also paying a £40m fee to Brentford.
Meanwhile, the oil-rich club are also set to sign Osimhen from Napoli.
The Nigerian is expected to cost £67m, with his Italian club desperate to cash in after signing Chelsea flop Romelu Lukaku.
But Osimhen’s wages will total a staggering £134m, taking his overall fee to £200m.
