In search of a real goalscorer next season, Paris Saint-Germain have set their sights on Victor Osimhen, the Napoli striker. If the Nigerian international is ready to sign, his president is very greedy.
Officially started on Saturday, the summer transfer window is for the moment absolutely calm in Ligue 1. While it is rather a waltz of coaches that has started, Paris Saint-Germain is preparing a spectacular transfer market. Lionel Messi having officially left, and Neymar being firmly pushed towards the exit, PSG must strengthen themselves offensively. And this with players compatible with Kylian Mbappé, who did not appreciate the choices of Luis Campos last year. According to the Neapolitan radio Radio Point Nuovo, the choice of the champions of France to strengthen his attack would be clearly made, since Victor Osimhen would be the number 1 target of the Parisian leaders. Largely involved in the quest for the title of Italian champion won by Napoli, the former LOSC player has even already begun to negotiate with Paris.

The Italian media claims that Julian Nagelsmann himself would have validated this choice, the German coach having put Victor Osimhen on his list of reinforcements that he considers essential for PSG. And that’s good since Luis Campos had the same idea, the Portuguese sports adviser having in addition ” great relationships “With the entourage of the Napoli striker to believe Radio Point Nuovo. If no negotiations have started with Aurelio de Laurentiis ” Ahe contract offer of 10 to 12 million euros net per season for five years is already in the pipeline for the player. “This salary would have already received the approval of the entourage of Osimhen, even if obviously nothing can be validated as long as the PSG and Naples have not started, and especially concluded, discussions. And this is where things will get complicated.

Because if Victor Osimhen is ready to come to Paris Saint-Germain, with a salary almost tripled compared to what he receives from the Italian champions, Aurelio de Laurentiis is a ruthless negotiator. The owner of Napoli has already warned all of Europe, to come and snatch the 24-year-old striker, who still has two years on his contract, he will have to pay 150 million euros. If some are tempted to smile, it’s not knowing the boss of the Partenopei is not the type to let the transfer window go, even if it means blocking a player. If PSG really wants to recruit Victor Osimhen, it will have to pay the price demanded by De Laurentiis, or at least find arguments to reach an agreement by including one or two players in the operation.
