Kylian Mbappé will reportedly leave to join Real Madrid as a free agent, so the capital club must replace his production. Paris Saint-Germain will have to close the Frenchman’s chapter, and now the capital club are eyeing other goal scorers this summer.
As PSG prepares to rebuild a team capable of winning the UEFA Champions League, the departure of Mbappé poses a significant challenge. Sporting advisor Luis Campos, however, has his eye on two potential replacements.
According to Le Parisien (h/t Paris Fans), PSG have targeted two players to strengthen its attack this summer: Napoli’s Victor Osimhen and Sporting Lisbon’s Viktor Gyökeres.
Securing both of those players is going to be a tough task for the Ligue 1 side. Chelsea are particularly interested in Osimhen to strengthen their attack, especially following a disappointing Premier League season in 2023-24. The Nigerian goal scorer has appeared in 30 games this season, registering 15 goals and four assists for the Serie A side.
Meanwhile, Arsenal are linked to Gyökeres, who is having a surprising campaign that has caught the attention of top European clubs. The Swedish striker has appeared in 47 matches for Sporting this season, scoring 41 goals and recording 15 assists.
He said he would prefer the English premier League and to a club playing in Europe. It looks like it will be Arsenal, I’m afraid to disappoint you all.
