PSG should face competition from Chelsea on the file of Nigerian scorer Victor Osimhen.

Paris SG will have to strengthen its offensive sector during the next summer transfer window. Among the avenues mentioned is that leading to the Naples scorer, Victor Osimhen. The latter is not a priority for management, but there is definitely an interest in it.

The interest in question was confirmed by Gianluca Di Marzio, the transfer expert, in an interview with Goal Poland. “PSG was a natural step for him because he is the natural successor to Kylian Mbappé. PSG will do anything to sign him, and he has an excellent relationship with Napoli. It’s a natural direction, even if there’s not a 100% certainty he’ll go there. »

Di Marzio still warns that Paris might not be the only club eyeing the former Lille player. “Premier League clubs will also try to get him, but he wants to play in the Champions League. That’s why it might be difficult for Chelsea to sign him, even if they wanted him last summer and in January. »

Finally, to conclude, the Italian journalist expressed his certainty that Osimhen is currently spending his last season in Naples. “Osimhen will not stay in Naples. The Napoli president confirmed that his contract extension was only because he deserved a higher salary. This gives Napoli more leverage, but there is also a release clause of 130-140 million euros. The price of Osimhen will be around this sum. Osimhen wants to leave, so this is the end of his stay in Naples.”
