The Nigeria striker made the surprising loan to Galatasaray from Napoli last summer and continued his frightening goal description.
The 26-year-old has 20 goals this season in 22 games in 22 games in the Turkish Superlig.
Talksport understands that Manchester United has already sent scouts last month to watch him. Chelsea has now been long -term admirers.
Liverpool, Arsenal and Tottenham will probably be on the market for a striker this summer.
Nigeria captain Troost-Ekong believes that the only goal will be the Premier League.
He said at the Weekend Sports Breakfast: “I know that he is a Chelsea fan, but I also know that he has had discussions with all the top teams. It is up to him what he chooses. It will fit into every team.
“I know that Liverpool spoke about getting a new striker next season. We will see.
“I also read like everyone else that he has a clause this summer. When he went to Galatasaray, he worked amazingly for him.
“I couldn’t see him playing for another season or somewhere else than the Premier League played next season.”
It is believed that this release clause is around 63 million pounds, while in the region of 200,000 GBP it would also need high-ranking wages per week.

The former Watford defender, Troost-Ekong, saw the qualities first-hand that made him one of the best strikers in all of Europe.
When he was asked about the end of moderator Tony Cascarino, he added: “It is the part he works the most. Its properties are his persistence, he is relentless, he will chase every ball down. It is incredible in the air. You can play the ball on him and he will hold the ball up.
“If he is one to one in the box or you penetrate it, he will score.
“He is direct, so I think that he would fit the Premier League.”
Osimhen was previously asked about a change to the Premier League and admitted that he saw his future there.
“Future in the Premier League? Of course I would like to play it one day, now I have other plans for my career. When the time comes, you will know everything, ”said Osimhen last year.
