Chelsea Legend Hoddle Wants Osimhen To Make Premier League Switch

Chelsea legend Glenn Hoddle would love to see Victor Osimhen play in the Premier League.

Osimhen scored for the eighth consecutive game as Napoli triumphed over Eintracht Frankfurt 2-0 in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League Round of 16 meeting at the Deutsche Bank Park on Tuesday night.

It was the forward’s 20th goal in 24 outings across all contests for the Partenopei this season.

Hoddle said the 24-year-old has everything immediately,  advising the striker to move to the English Premier League in the summer.

Osimhen has that pace to go in rear defenders,” Hoddle told BT Sport.

“And he is also good at hold-up play and can hold the ball up. He has got everything at an instant.

“He is a top player. Let us hope he can start again, be injury free, and end up in the Premier League. It would be lovely to see him play every other week.”
