Napoli’s Victor Osimhen has declined a transfer to the Premier League and might opt to return to Ligue 1, with Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) as his intended destination in the upcoming summer transfer window.
The 25-year-old Nigerian forward appears set to depart from Napoli in the summer, despite having inked a fresh contract in December which incorporates a €130 million release clause, providing him an exit route after the season.
Despite facing injuries throughout the season, the Nigerian international has excelled in Serie A, scoring 11 goals and contributing three assists in 18 league matches. With the summer transfer window approaching, the 25-year-old is anticipated to be a prime target for several clubs.
In a chat with Radio Kiss Kiss Napoli, Agent Dario Canovi has revealed that Victor Osimhen will join PSG this summer as a replacement for Kylian Mbappe.
“Osimhen’s future? In my opinion he is likely to play in PSG.
“It would be the most successful signing after the farewell of Mbappè who has already been at Real Madrid for months, I see a farce that has been going on for some time so as not to say it.
“Mbappè sent the coach to hell and also insulted him. The only team that has Mbappe in its hands is Real Madrid.”
