BREAKING NEWS: Nigerian and Napoli striker Victor Osimhen has turned down a move to Paris Saint-Germain because he wants to play in the Premier League instead
Victor Osimhen, known for his striking skills at Napoli, seems keen on venturing into the Premier League, showing willingness to snub Paris Saint-Germain’s advances.
Chelsea has initiated talks with Napoli, exploring the feasibility of a deal that could involve Osimhen, potentially swapping him for Romelu Lukaku alongside another promising player.
Recent reports hint that Lukaku himself is eyeing a move to Napoli during the upcoming transfer window.
According to Gianluca di Marzio, speaking to Sky Italia via CN24, Osimhen leans towards avoiding PSG altogether, preferring to hold out for offers from Premier League clubs.
The Nigerian forward isn’t particularly thrilled about the idea of joining PSG, having already plied his trade with Lille in France. Notably, Premier League giants Chelsea and Arsenal have emerged as potential suitors for his signature.
Amidst the buzz, Napoli and Chelsea are contemplating a swap deal involving Osimhen and Lukaku, exploring various possibilities.
Di Marzio further notes Osimhen’s affinity for England, frequently visiting to spend time with friends. At present, PSG seems like an unlikely destination for him.
