Victor Osimhen, the 25-year-old striker under contract to Napoli until 2026, was rumored to be close to Paris Saint-Germain during the summer mercato, but the deal was never finalized. Instead, the Nigerian international went on loan to Galatasaray at the last minute. He is taking advantage of this to shine again and is once again being talked about at PSG. PSG Inside Actus has an answer to these rumours.
“Osimhen won’t be coming to PSG. Luis Enrique hasn’t changed his mind.”
We remain cautious, as this is still just a rumor. So there’s no certainty. But while several media outlets are trying to re-launch the dossier, it’s quite a blow.
And it makes sense, since many agree that Osimhen didn’t really interest coach Luis Enrique last summer. That’s unlikely to have changed in a few months. Except that this part, too, is a rumor… you can quickly get lost in the vagueness.
In any case, the player is on loan, which isn’t the easiest way to transfer. His price has certainly come down (the departure clause is said to be 75 million euros, compared with 130 million before), but PSG may have many other leads that are at least as accessible. And nothing says that Osimhen is tempted.
