Links of Chelsea returning to the scene of their former top transfer target have refused to go away over the past few days.
It has been claimed that the Blues are back in discussions over the potential signing of Victor Osimhen, however this time it seems as if they are coming with a different approach.
A potential loan move has reportedly been spoken about, although it has been claimed that Napoli will look to include an obligation as part of the deal.

It looked as if the Blues had gone off the idea, with Enzo Maresca not too keen on adding Osimhen to his side as he prepares for his first season as a Premier League manager.
An exit from the Serie A side is the most likely scenario at this stage, as Antonio Conte continues to dream of his side bringing in Romelu Lukaku.
Osimhen dreams of Premier League move
While PSG and even the Saudi Pro League have sometimes been mentioned as a potential destination for him, his family have reportedly said playing in the Premier League is his real dream.
Journalist Vincenzo Credendino told BBC Sport: “Since the first day his agent and relatives have always told us that his dream is to go to the Premier League.”
Any move to Stamford Bridge would put a big dent in the confidence of the strikers who are currently with the club preparing for next season.
Nicolas Jackson deserves chance to start
Nicolas Jackson enjoyed a really strong first campaign in English football, and will no doubt be confident he can improve greatly with more minutes on the pitch.
He will perhaps already feel as if his place in the side is coming under pressure from the emergence of Marc Guiu, who joined from Barcelona this summer.
The youngster has started every pre-season game so far for the Blues, and he found the net for the first time in the win over Club America.
