Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) is setting its sights on Victor Osimhen as a priority target for the upcoming winter transfer window. The Nigerian striker, currently on loan from Napoli to Galatasaray, has been on PSG’s radar for some time, and recent developments suggest the club is keen to bolster its attacking options with his addition.
According to sources, PSG’s management has already contacted Osimhen to express their interest. While the forward is reportedly flattered by the attention and aware of the Parisian club’s ambitions, he also feels comfortable in Turkey, where he has received a warm welcome and settled well.
However, securing Osimhen’s signature is far from straightforward. Firstly, PSG head coach Luis Enrique has shown hesitation about the striker’s arrival, reflecting a similar stance he held during the summer transfer window. His approval will be critical for any deal to move forward.
Adding to the complexity is Osimhen’s contractual situation. The 24-year-old, who has featured in 10 Turkish Super Lig matches and four Europa League games this season, remains tied to Napoli. Any transfer would require a three-way negotiation involving PSG, Galatasaray, and Napoli. Such a process could be time-consuming and intricate, especially given the differing priorities of each party.
As PSG continues to explore its options, the prospect of bringing in Osimhen underscores the club’s ambition to strengthen its squad for the latter half of the season. Whether they can overcome the significant hurdles to finalize the deal remains to be seen.
