PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaïfi is heading towards a first big transfer window setback in his quest to replace Kylian Mbappé. A targeted big scorer would be ready to reject the Parisian club’s offer for another destination.
Mercato PSG: Nasser Al-Khelaïfi ready to break the bank
Paris Saint-Germain has certainty for its spending in the next summer transfer window. The departure of Kylian Mbappé will allow the capital club to make a big saving since Nasser Al-Khelaïfi will be relieved of the club’s biggest salary. Good news for the transfer window of the Parisian club which intends to make big signings this summer.
Luis Campos is on the trail of several profiles identified to compensate for the void that the departure of the Bondyn striker will create. An envelope of more than 100 million euros would even be on the table for one of the club’s biggest priorities. However, the proposal from the Ligue 1 champion does not really seem to be the one announced as the desired scorer.
Victor Osimhen, the unrealizable dream of PSG and Al-Khelaïfi?
Corriere dello Sport reports that Naples striker Victor Osimhen, the striker chosen by PSG’s Al-Khelaïfi, has nipped in the bud any possibility of seeing him join the French championship next season. According to the Italian media, the Nigerian striker does not want to play in France but mainly prefers to play in the Premier League. There is also no shortage of suitors since at least three clubs would like to have him in their squad for next season.
Three great teams behind Osimhen
The same transalpine media not only echoes the refusal of the Naples scorer in the French championship and its champion, but also cites the teams seeking to recruit him in the English championship. We mention in particular the already known interest of Chelsea, who even contacted the player, Liverpool and Manchester United are returning to the fray. The Reds are even considered a tough opponent for the other two due to their history and the fact that they will play the Champions League in the 24/25 season.
The Kolo Muani and Gonçalo Ramos dilemma
The problem in this matter is twofold for PSG, since not only will they lose their great reference, Mbappé, but the two they signed for 160 million euros, that is, Kolo Muani and Gonçalo Ramos , did not really convince. One of the two seems possible to leave, but now the Parisians must find a worthy replacement for Mbappé, an arduous and complex task despite the money available.
In summary, Nasser Al-Khelaïfi was going to invest around 103 million pounds sterling in Osimhen, or around 120 million euros, but without the Nigerian option, it is difficult to know which avenue PSG will want to fall back on.
