In a significant development in the European football transfer market, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) appears to be on the brink of securing a monumental €120 million deal with Napoli for the acquisition of forward Victor Osimhen. This impending agreement deals a substantial blow to Chelsea’s aspirations of recruiting the Nigerian international to address their striker crisis ahead of the upcoming season.
Reports from Italian outlet Il Mattino indicate that negotiations between Napoli and PSG have progressed to an advanced stage, with the French giants poised to activate Osimhen’s €120 million release clause. Furthermore, PSG is reportedly prepared to offer Osimhen a lucrative four-year contract worth €13 million (£11m/$14m) per season, demonstrating their determination to outmaneuver competitors like Chelsea in securing the player’s signature.
Chelsea’s withdrawal from the race for Osimhen’s signature is attributed to their financial constraints and the imperative to adhere to the Premier League’s Profit & Sustainability Regulations (PSR). Despite several top European clubs expressing interest in Osimhen, PSG’s pursuit seems to have gained momentum, leaving Chelsea on the sidelines.

The potential move to PSG holds significant implications for Osimhen’s career trajectory, with the Nigerian forward emerging as a leading candidate to replace Kylian Mbappe, who has signaled his desire to depart the club in the upcoming transfer window. Osimhen’s impressive performances, including his contribution to the Super Eagles’ journey to the Africa Cup of Nations final, have garnered widespread attention, despite him signing a contract extension with Napoli until 2026 last December.
The 25-year-old striker’s prolific goal-scoring record, highlighted by 26 goals in 32 Serie A appearances last season and seven goals in 13 matches this season, has solidified his status as one of Europe’s most lethal forwards. PSG’s willingness to activate Osimhen’s release clause underscores their commitment to reinforcing their squad amid Mbappe’s potential departure and their pursuit of domestic and continental success.
As negotiations between Napoli and PSG near completion, the football world eagerly anticipates the official confirmation of Osimhen’s transfer to the French capital, marking a significant chapter in the player’s career and reshaping the landscape of European football.
