Left somewhat by default for Galatasaray at the end of the summer, for lack of anything better, Victor Osimhen could make his return to a major championship as early as this winter transfer windowand in particular Ligue 1. But if PSG has started discussions, the file promises to be eminently complex.
Victor Osimhen in Ligue 1, a distant hypothesis?
Will we see each other again one day Victor Osimhen in Ligue 1, after his only season at LOSC in 2019-2020? At the end of this, the Nigerian caught the eye of Napoli, flew to Italy in a vague financial arrangement before reaching a point of no return this summer, with both parties displaying a mutual desire to cease their collaboration – not at any cost, however. It was in Galatasaray, Turkey, that the 25-year-old striker bounced back, despite interest from PSG and Chelsea which ultimately did not go any further.
However, after the 10 goals and 5 assists in 14 matches of the former Lille player with the Istanbul club, but especially in view of his profound deficiency in offensive efficiency and the absence of a center forward referenced in the global scale, the Paris Saint-Germain could take action this winter. According to information from RMC Sportthe capital club contacted Victor Osimhen, who did not close the door while not forcing a departure from Türkiye, where he feels good. Especially since PSG will have to get a lot of people to agree: the player, but also Galatasaray and Napoli, to whom he still belongs.
In this sense, Paris hopes to convince the Italian team with a loan with a purchase option, when the latter would prefer to get rid of it permanently and would even have set a departure clause at 75 million euros. Suffice to say that, if mutual interests exist, there is still a long way to go before we see Victor Osimhen again on the road to LOSC in the championship.
