PSG’s squad is expected to change next season. After a 2022 transfer window perceived as a failure (Carlos Soler, Hugo Ekitiké, Fabian Ruiz or Renato Sanches will not be selected), the management of the capital club, led by Luis Campos, is working on the next transfer market. In the line of sight, an attacker.
Several targets are mentioned for the scorer position, including Randal Kolo Muani, but especially the Neapolitan Victor Osimhen.
Napoli retains Osimhen
Author of a great season with the Italian club (27 goals in 34 games), just crowned Serie A champion, the 24-year-old former LOSC panicked several European teams, including Bayern Munich and Manchester United. But the Nigerian will not be easy to poach from Napoli, a club known to be tough in business.
Present on the Ray this Friday, the president of the transalpine formation, Aurelio De Laurentiis, made a statement to this effect: “Selling Victor Osimhen this summer? No never !” In order to keep the striker, the Italian president could try a coup by rewarding Victor Osimhen for his good season, via bonuses. What to retain the striker in Naples, and exclude PSG, Bayern Munich and the others from the race for his signature?
Spalletti to convince Osimhen?
At the same time, Aurelio De Laurentiis opened up about the situation of his coach, Luciano Spalletti: “I wanted him for ten years, finally brought him here (in 2021) and he brought the club back to Europe after the coronavirus crisis. Now I would like a cycle to open under his leadership, because he is a great leader. That’s why I exercised the option (to extend it), now it’s up to him.
The Italian coach, staying in Naples, could also convince Victor Osimhen not to leave, and to play the Champions League with the club next year.
