Recently, there have been ongoing links between Napoli star Victor Osimhen and Paris Saint-Germain. With the transfer window now open, speculation surrounding Osimhen’s potential move to the Parisians has reignited.
Following his move from Ligue 1’s LOSC Lille to Napoli, the Nigerian international has scored 76 goals in 133 games, 65 of which were in Serie A. Osimhen also played a crucial role in Napoli’s march to winning the 2022-23 league championship.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reported on Monday that Osimhen is still on PSG’s radar in case they decide to offload a striker this summer. While there’s no concrete offer yet, he’s among the names PSG is considering.
Additionally, clubs in the Saudi Pro League are showing interest. If Osimhen does move, Napoli reportedly plans to pursue Chelsea veteran striker Romelu Lukaku.

A few days ago, a report from Corriere dello Sport revealed that PSG are still the most likely European destination for Osimhen. However, Al-Ahli is reported to be interested in Saudi Arabia.
The Italian media outlet adds that PSG might resume negotiations with the Serie A side for Osimhen. If successful, this move could pave the way for new Napoli manager Conte to secure a deal for Lukaku.
