Victor Osimhen reportedly wants out of Napoli, but during this summer transfer window, a move has yet to materialize. The Nigerian striker has been linked to Arsenal, Chelsea, and Paris Saint-Germain but no agreement so far.
According to RadioRadio, Arsenal is making a strong bid for Osimhen as the transfer window nears its end. However, it appears he has already agreed to join PSG, who are offering him a significantly higher salary than Arsenal. Moreover, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano recently noted that a move to Chelsea would only happen via a loan.
Journalist Ben Jacobs has also pointed out that Osimhen is growing impatient and is hoping Napoli will show more flexibility regarding his release clause. Nonetheless, a move to the French capital looks bleak at the moment.
RMC Sport’s Fabrice Hawkins reports that manager Luis Enrique isn’t necessarily a fan of Osimhen’s profile. He’s not convinced that the current Napoli striker is the player he needs up front to carry out his playstyle.
