Victor Osimhen’s only goal at the AFCON 2023 tournament came in the opening fixture of the Super Eagles when they faced Equatorial Guinea at the Stade Olympique Allassane Ouattara.
Super Eagles and Napoli forward, Victor James Osimhen, is Paris Saint-Germain’s priority target after French forward, Kylian Mbappé announced he will be leaving the club, Soccernet.ng reports.
Osimhen, 25, featured in all of Nigeria’s seven games in Ivory Coast as the Nigerian Football team secured a silver medal at the AFCON 2023 tournament.
French Superstar, Kylian Mbappé is set to exit the Parc des Princes at the end of the season after seven years at the club, with Real Madrid tipped to be his next destination.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Napoli’s Victor Osimhen is the number one player on the list of potential replacements for the FIFA 2018 World Cup winner.
Osimhen’s €130 million release clause, which must be paid in a single instalment, does not deter 11-time French Champions as they have the financial superpower.
The 24-year-old is the highest-paid player in Napoli’s history, earning €10 million net per season, but PSG’s financial might would easily dwarf that figure.
Napoli president, Aurelien De Laurentiis openly admitted that the CAF Player of the Year will most likely leave in the summer, with Real Madrid, PSG and other Premier clubs as the likely destination for the 1.85m tall striker.
However, Osimhen’s ambition to play in the English Premier League poses a huge threat for PSG. The English top flight has always been his dream destination, and he has been suggested to make the move by legendary players like Emmanuel Adebayor, Gallas, Didier Drogba and Mikel Obi.
Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal and Mauricio Pochetinno’s Chelsea are the two sides that have been linked with bringing Osimhen to England.
