Victor Osimhen’s dream to move to PSG might not come through since the French giant has withdrawn their interest in signing the Nigeria forward player.
The striker has already agreed terms with PSG, but according to reports from France confirmed that PSG decided to leave Victor Osimhen’s deal due to the conditions that were placed on the table by Napoli.
Why did Osimhen’s deal with PSG failed?
The French club discussions with the Napoli about signing Osimhen suffered a setback because an agreement could not be reached on a fee or the inclusion of Kang-in Lee in the deal. They have also sent a message to Napoli that they will not trigger the release clause of the forward player as it was initially expected.
PSG’s next move?
PSG have shown interest in signing João Neves as they hope to wrap up the signing of the Portuguese midfielder.
Transfer news expert, Fabrizio Romano also confirmed on his YouTube page that they are happy with Molo Muani and Goncalo Ramos, who is still with the club.

He said; “Over the weekend and especially in the last 24 hours, Napoli wanted to include Lee Kang-in as part of the deal. For PSG: impossible, no way, [he’s a] really important player. So, PSG said no to Lee Kang-in being involved in the deal. So, no agreement between clubs.
Napoli started asking again for the value of the release clause, €120m, €130m. PSG will not pay that money. So, PSG said no to paying the release clause. In case it was an open deal with different conditions,
PSG were open. Now, the deal is currently on standby and could be off because there is a big gap in valuation…Deal currently stopped because negotiations can’t advance like this.”
This could also affect Chelsea as they are looking to offload Romelu Lukaku to Napoli, the deal is hinged on Osimhen, leaving Naples.
