Chelsea Reportedly Ready Big-Money Bid for Porto’s Samu Omorodion

Unconfirmed reports point to a summer approach, with Porto maintaining a €100m valuation for their 20-year-old forward.

Overview

  • CaughtOffside, citing Fichajes, reports Chelsea are planning a £87 million offer next summer for the Porto striker.
  • EPL Index relays that Chelsea are preparing a proposal exceeding €100 million, while Porto are said to reject any bids below that figure.
  • Porto are described as under no pressure to sell, with the player contracted until June 2029.
  • Omorodion, a 20-year-old Spaniard, has been praised in Portugal as a key attacker, with eight goals in nine appearances this season after a 25-goal debut campaign.
  • The pursuit aligns with Enzo Maresca’s priority to add a long-term No 9, despite recent forward additions and ongoing scrutiny of high-fee signings.
