Napoli desperate to sell Osimhen, PSG play it smart

The transfer saga around Victor Osimhen is still ongoing, and its end is not in sight. At this point, Napoli seems to have found themselves caught between a rock and a hard place. Namely, Osimhen wants to leave, and the Neapolitans wish to sell him. Per his contract, the forward is supposed to get a salary increase and earn 10 million euros in the next season. Apart from that, he needs a new challenge, and nobody wants an unambitious player in the squad. (🌕) PSG refuse to go beyond €80m for Victor Osimhen. Napoli offered Paris €90m + Lee Kang In.

Nevertheless, Aurelio De Laurentiis has no intention of selling cheap, while the only interested side – Paris Saint-Germain – don’t want to accept his terms. Napoli demand the meeting of the Nigerian’s release clause worth 130 million euros, whereas the French offer 40 million less. The Saints are aware that they are in control and don’t want to haggle with the Italians. On the other hand, Napoli have already agreed to the deal with Antonio Conte’s big wish, Romelu Lukaku, and thus, Osimhen’s transfer should be finalized soon.The Saints want Man United’s flank vibrancy and midfield stabilitySeeing that they won’t get the required amount, the Neapolitans sent a counterproposal to PSG – 90 million euros plus Lee Kang-in for Osimhen – which was rejected. Given that the French side had already turned down 70 million euros from a Premier League club for the Korean, it was hard to believe they would accept Napoli’s offer.The Nigerian has allegedly agreed on personal terms with Paris Saint-Germain, and only the agreement between the two clubs is missing. Subsequently, the fact that Osimhen was left out of the squad in Napoli’s pre-season match against Mantova on Saturday speaks in favour of the 25-year-old’s imminent departure.##NAJAVA_MECA_8225566##
