The French giants are reportedly seeking a €20 million discount on Victor Osimhen’s release clause. This move comes amid speculation that Randal Kolo Muani could be leaving the club after just one year, making way for the Napoli star.
Osimhen, who is expected to depart Napoli this summer, has rekindled PSG’s interest. Allnigeriasoccer.com reports that according to Napoli Magazine, PSG’s sporting director, Luis Campos, is in active discussions with Osimhen’s representatives regarding a potential move. Campos, who signed Osimhen for Lille in 2019, has been a long-time admirer of the striker’s talents.
PSG’s efforts to negotiate a significant reduction in Osimhen’s release clause reflect their strategic interest in the player. Despite the tough negotiating stance of Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis, PSG views Osimhen’s acquisition as an opportunity to improve relations between the clubs, following previous tensions over transfer dealings, notably involving Kvaratskhelia.
The possible departure of French forward Randal Kolo Muani, who joined PSG from Eintracht Frankfurt in 2023, could facilitate Osimhen’s arrival. Reports indicate Muani may leave PSG after just one season, further clearing the path for the Nigerian striker’s transfer.
As Osimhen prepares to resume pre-season with Napoli, ongoing discussions between his camp and the club aim to resolve his future swiftly.
