Recent reports reveal Kylian Mbappé will be leaving Paris Saint-Germain after the 2023-24 season. If that’s accurate, then the Parisians need to find a replacement for his production.
One of the favorite targets recently surfacing for PSG is AC Milan’s Rafael Leão. According to a recent report, he’s the frontrunner and stands among the favored choices for the upcoming summer transfer window.
However, the Portugal international isn’t the only one the capital club is considering to replace the 25-year-old. The Telegraph’s Jason Burt reports that PSG is eyeing Napoli’s Victor Osimhen to replace Mbappé.

Paris appears to be the likely destination for Osimhen this summer, given the reported decision of the 2018 FIFA World Cup winner to leave the club. It appears that sporting advisor Luis Campos wants to land a player he knows well to replace Mbappé.
Leão and Osimhen are two players the Portuguese chief had while at Lille before the two left for Serie A. As a result, it comes as no surprise that Campos wants a player he likely trusts to fill some big shoes.
