We were just waiting when it would happen, and you could smell it in the air – Paris Saint-Germain are after Victor Osimhen.The first offer flew to Naples. There is little to no chance that the owner of Napoli, Aurelio de Laurentiis, will say “yes”, because PSG offered “only” 110,000,000 euros for the best player and goal scorer of the new champion of Italy, writes the Neapolitan newspaper Il Matino.##NAJAVA_MECA_7365475##It is known that De Laurentiis is a hellishly tough negotiator and that he said several times that Osimhen’s price is 200,000,000 euros; therefore it is clear that PSG want to scan the situation and check the reaction of the Napoli boss with their first offer.However, if the Neapolitans are not satisfied with what the Parisians are offering them, Osimhen certainly could be, because he has 12,000,000 euros per season on the table from the Saints. It’s a contract that Napoli can’t even come close to, and even few in European football today. The Nigerian now earns €4,500,000 at Napoli and was offered an increase to €7,000,000 in the latest contract extension offer. With a little negotiation, he could get twice as much from the French champions.🎙️ Napoli President Aurelio De Laurentiis: “Osimhen? The only club that could afford him is PSG. So, if Nasser Al-Khelaïfi wants to spend €200m, we wait and then evaluate. Personally I think he’ll stay.” pic.twitter.com/VpiMvWWSdb— PurelyFootball ℗ (@PurelyFootball) July 11, 2023 Osimhen’s agent, Roberto Calenda, expects an even bigger offer to arrive from Paris soon to Napoli, because PSG coach Luis Enrique, the Italians write, is “crazy for the Nigerian”. There is little chance that another European club will be involved in the negotiations for Napoli’s goalscorer, because the sum has already skyrocketed after the French contacted the Italian side. The only thing that could murk the waters is an “offer that cannot be refused” from the Middle East, since the football market there has exploded and the Arabs are looking to bring every big name they can and don’t care what it costs.
