Victor Osimhen’s potential move to Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) seems to be far from straightforward, according to L’Equipe. The transfer saga has seen numerous twists, turns, and changes in direction.
L’Equipe reports that while negotiations between PSG and Victor Osimhen initially appeared promising, they have since stalled. « He is not the type of forward that Luis Enrique typically relies on, which is why Campos has reportedly told some parties that he is not working on bringing him in this year, » the sports daily explains.
The two clubs did engage in discussions about a potential transfer, exploring various arrangements. For example, Napoli proposed a package deal involving both Osimhen and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia to justify their high demands, which PSG found excessive. Additionally, several PSG players were mentioned as potential makeweights, but no agreement was reached.

The situation is further complicated by the high release clauses associated with the players involved, which would push the deal beyond €250 million. While this sum is within PSG’s financial reach, it is still a considerable amount. « Osimhen is willing to move to Paris, provided he does not suffer financially (he earns over €10 million net per year). His entourage is questioning and not understanding the capital club’s delay, » L’Equipe adds.
The ongoing uncertainty and delays have left both parties in a state of confusion, with Osimhen’s camp perplexed by PSG’s indecision and the complex nature of the negotiations.
