The final stretch of the 2023-24 season will allow for Paris Saint-Germain to see whether they need help replacing Kylian Mbappé’s production when he reportedly departs this summer. One of the names in the rumor mill that PSG are potentially pursuing is Victor Osimhen.
Osimhen is likely to leave Napoli this summer, but the Serie A side want any interested club to pay the €120 million release clause. If multiple teams are willing to pay the buyout clause, then the Nigerian striker will need to make a decision.
Il Mattino reports that Osimhen’s dream move this summer is to join PSG, despite the interest from Chelsea and Premier League clubs. Napoli owner, De Laurentiis is ready to accept offers for him and may reluctantly accept an offer below his release clause.

It will be interesting to see whether the Parisians pursue the 25-year-old, considering there’s another report that notes that they have no interest in Sporting Lisbon striker Viktor Gyökeres.
The capital club intend to keep Gonçalo Ramos and Randal Kolo Muani for the moment; it has confidence in them for next season. As a result, PSG might not be pursuing Osimhen.
