It's no secret that PSG will have to rebuild offensively this summer. In question obviously, the departure of Kylian Mbappé to Real Madrid. A big sporting loss for the capital club which will therefore have to rethink its offensive animation. And if Luis Enrique still has Gonçalo Ramos and Randal Kolo Muani, who arrived last summer, a recruit, or even two in this sector cannot be ruled out. For several months, a name has been coming back insistently: that of Victor Osimhen. The Naples striker, who experienced Ligue 1 with Lille, seems to be reaching the end of his Italian adventure and would not be against a new challenge.
Already last summer, after his XXL season punctuated by a final victory in Serie A, the Nigerian striker was highly coveted. But Aurelio De Laurentiis is tough in business and he quickly blocked his player, demanding a crazy sum to let him go. Victor Osimhen accepted this decision and chose to stay another year. However, there is now no doubt that the 25-year-old striker will pack his bags this summer. And according to the Neapolitan press, PSG has never been so close to closing the deal.
The Italian press got carried away a little quickly…
According to information fromIl Mattino, there is no doubt, Victor Osimhen will leave Naples this summer. The player would even already agree with PSG. Discussions would have accelerated between the player's entourage and Parisian management. The Italian daily even reveals that the native of Lagos would receive 13 million per year in France and would sign a 4-year contract with full control of his image rights. Il Mattino even adds that he would also sign several sponsorship contracts with Qatari brands.
However, and despite what the Neapolitan press may say, the file is clearly not as advanced as that, we were informed by a Parisian source and the former Lille player is only one offensive avenue among others. The lying poker game is therefore launched and promises a lively summer in terms of transfer rumors in the capital. To the delight of Parisian supporters… or not.
