“Bayer Leverkusen and more clubs tried to enter the race to sign the striker but Omorodion has decided to join Chelsea.”

Chelsea are poised to bolster their attacking options with the imminent signing of the Super Eagles-eligible striker from Atlético Madrid.

The Blues have agreed personal terms with the promising forward on a seven-year contract that will keep him at Stamford Bridge until June 2031.

A fee of £35 million has been settled with Atlético, paving the way for Omorodion’s move to West London.

The deal saw the light of day after the Spanish La Liga club moved closer to completing the acquisition of Julián Álvarez from Manchester City.

Chelsea have been in the market for a striker with the Blues heavily linked to Napoli’s Victor Osimhen all summer, however, Omorodion joining the Premier League side will be one for the future.
