Though not the Premier League, PSG is strong in Ligue 1. Yeah, they steamroll the competition in France, but that's not a bad thing for Osimhen. That kind of persistent winning mentality can boost a player's game, especially in the Champions League

They know he scores goals, so Napoli can charge whatever they want. That's pennies for PSG. Osimhen is the striker they need to score regularly in Europe. They've struggled in the Champions League, but this person could make the difference

Not just trophies, but legacy. Osimhen has the potential to become a legend at PSG, and that's something you can't put a price tag on

Osimhen was an option for PSG even in the last season. I think Osimhen could have even better performance in the last season when he was in the better form but now PSG knows they can't expect to see a miracle from this player but he can have a good performance like two years ago and he can be out of the good form like last season. I think there can be better options for PSG than Osimhen and they should not be worried and run for finding a replacement for Mbappe because Osimhen and Mbappe are not at the same level at all.

If Osimhen's target is a domestic title, then Paris Saint Germain could be an option for him because it is almost certain that they will be able to get the Ligue 1 title. However, I agree that if he cares more about his career, then I think it would be better for him to look for a better team again in competition. It's true, almost every season Paris Saint Germain can be in the Champions League, but every season they also experience repeated failures. they are not that great compared to other teams in the Champions League.
That depends on Napoli too, because if the price they set is high then chances are that only Paris Siant Germain will be willing to spend the money to bring him. The reason is that with the high price, other teams are thinking twice about getting his signature. Last season there were also many teams interested, but they couldn't afford what Napoli wanted in terms of price.

England qjs always been osimhens dream, he wishes to play in an English team and as a matter of been particular, Chelsea has been his most preferred choice according to his statement long ago on the media, Jim not moving to nay other team yet is probably because he knows how crucial his next move will affect his career considering how popular he has become and so if he gets offer from any random teams away from his choiced leagues, he may most likely turn them down, currently if he gets an offer from Chelsea he would most likely accept that more than he would with PSG. Winning the champion's league no doubtts is possible at PSH but I don't think it still makes it an opportunistic team for players looking to advance career, appearing in the champions league consistently is their most obvious advantage and that is because the Ligue is yet to be so competitive to the point PSG will have to battle qualifications.

Osimhen previously played for Lille before Napoli bought him for 60 million euros after he performed quite impressively during his season at Lille,  so It's surprising that Osimhen market value has also increased rapidly at this time, of course, Osimhen attracted the attention of many big clubs when he was able to help Napoli win the Scudetto last season, but at that time, along with a new contract extension, Napoli fenced him off with a fairly high release clause and making many teams choose to withdraw from recruiting him, previously PSG was reportedly very interested in bringing in Osimhen as a replacement for Mbappe but for some reason now it seems like PSG is not doing anything to realize their current interest.

The decline in Osimhen performance occurred while he was injured when helping Nigeria in the African Cup last season, but even so when he recovered and return to the team towards the middle of this season he was actually able to make Napoli improve again, In my opinion, Osimhen has made a big contribution to the team that has him, so PSG should be able to consider him as an alternative to become their main striker next season, PSG has a guarantee of qualifying for the UCL every season because they have dominated Ligue 1 so far and of course that is could be a step for Osimhen to become a main star in Ligue 1 , so this will enable him to become a target for other big teams in the future like just like Mbappe is currently.

As far as I know, last season Osimhen had a very large transfer market value which made many clubs unable to get him. Napoli also won't let other clubs get it easily. Because of that, they set a high price clause for Osimhen. This season Napoli's performance has been very bad. Osimhen managed to score 15 goals and was among the top scorers but was unable to provide a good performance for Napoli.

I think if given the choice in my opinion PSG is better than Napoli. They can almost always win the league so they will always be able to play in the UCL almost every season. But the problem is that currently PSG is not a good choice if you want to have a career. They are a good team but Ligue 1 is not as competitive as some of Europe's other top leagues.

After hearing about many superstar players joining the Saudi League, now it seems Saudis want to hire a player from PSG.
Marquinhos is the captain of PSG even during the time when they had many superstar players but he was not a famous player for PSG at all and even sometimes the fans wanted him to leave and now it seems he got an offer from Al Ittihad to play for this team in the next season.
Even PSG confirmed the offer they got from this Saudi team.

Are you kidding me? PSG is a "developing team"? More like a black hole in development for ambition and talent. Yes, they have money to burn; but, when has that ever translated into Champions League glory? Stand up and scent the Qatari oil, folks! Lamine Yamal and Osimhen could be generational gifts. Why would they waste their prime years in a club thats more interested in buying trophies than earning them? Playing time at PSG? Please. PSG's only development is their standing as the top European football bottler.

I am happier when I see players who can be in a more competitive league, I mean a league that is more regular and plays every week. In Ligue 1, in my opinion, there is no more competitive competition, especially at Paris Saint Germain they seem to be guaranteed that they will at least get one title there. So when competition is like that (not competitive) it will also affect them. Because maybe they will feel comfortable and in the end be lulled by what they get.

However, I wouldn't say that that's a wrong thing, because the competition is there, but it's not that tough. The advantage is that they will be able to play more regularly and that can increase their flying hours. On the other hand, when they definitely get regular playing time, then that also means there is no competition between players, in my opinion that is also not good in a team. The reason is that there must be competition so that players can show their best game.

Young players like the ones you mentioned wouldn't be wrong if they wanted to have a career at PSG as long as they have the opportunity to play more and can also be seen more often in two different competitions. Because PSG itself is a team that often enters the Champions League, so young players who have special talents can also be more highlighted by the media and can also be more sought after by other teams at the end of the season. However, what is very unfortunate is that their own time can be wasted while they are at a team like PSG when they could have the opportunity to win the UCL trophy through another team.

If PSG think they still have good players at their club and with this player they will win the France league title next season as well as reach the semi-finals of the Champions League again then I would say they are daydreaming. 

Mbappe alone made up 40% of the team and he left PSG for Real Madrid this season so if a quality player can't be recruited to replace him then the situation will worsen. I don't understand why Luis Enrique is in charge of PSG why he is not taking any steps to improve the performance of this club. I've seen other managers who have come to PSG and spent a lot of money on players so why aren't they spending money in the transfer market now that they have a quality manager at their club. 

With the state of their local league, they might win the local league but this team is never going to do well in the Champions League.

If Osimhen were so in demand, then some team would have bought him long ago, but he continues to play in Napoli, and all his possible transfers end only in rumors. Sooner or later PSG will win the Champions League, and Ligue 1 remains one of the top leagues that provides many opportunities for the player. Mbappe, by the way, came to PSG from Monaco, and now he is a Real Madrid player, in my opinion this is a very good career development, and it didn’t hurt that he started in Ligue 1.

Tanguy finally returned to the league that once made a name for himself in football, he had spent a lot of time with Lyon before and became the player with the most expensive purchase by Tottenham in 2019, but bought at a high price but Tanguy is very difficult to adapt to the English league game and makes Tottenham continue to loan him to many different teams so far,  After a long journey in various teams on loan he was finally terminated by Tottenham and now joins Nice to continue his career, Nice managed to get him for free and I think Nice was lucky enough to get him even though he failed with Tottenham so far but he was very good when he was in Ligue 1 previously.

Nice of course needs several new players for them to recruit this season in order to be able to compete next season, especially now that Khephren Thuram who has been Nice mainstay in the midfield is starting to get closer to Juventus, so by bringing in Tanguy of course they can make him the right replacement to maintain a solid midfield next season.

Ndombele could have been a much better player but I believe he wasted his career by himself.    He couldn't find proper chances in his last times at Tottenham and after that he just started to be loaned to other teams every season. He put on a lot of weight when he joined Galatasaray as well and he couldn't be much of a use.

Now he has joined Nice for free and I don't think Tottenham cares about losing him like that. But I still hope he regains his form in every way to pull himself together. He is normally a decent midfielder but just careless at the same time.

Nice have again expanded their connections to add strength in midfield and this time they got Tanguy Ndombélé for free from Spurs. Tanguy Ndombélé spent last season at Galatassaray after the Turkish side signed him on loan. When he returned to Spurs, he was no longer included in the plans, so he did not get a contract extension and was free to join any club.

Actually, I still remember Tanguy Ndombélé's performance a few seasons ago and he was still good enough so this was the right transfer for Nice to take. He also has quite a lot of experience with European teams and this is the arrival of Tanguy Ndombélé back to Ligue One after last playing for Lyon in 2018.

I agree with you. Young players should be with an experienced squad and with an experienced coach. PSG coach Luis Enrique is very experienced. However, PSG's squad cannot be called experienced. Moreover, PSG's performance in the Champions League is not good. If Yamal or Osimhen stay with a squad like Barca, City or Madrid, their overall performance is more likely to improve.

However, the PSG team will definitely offer relatively more opportunities and higher wages to the young players. So it's no surprise that the young player accepted PSG's offer. The next few years are likely to see players like Yamal and Osimhen at PSG.

If they go to a better team, they won't necessarily be able to get regular time, I don't think so, in fact PSG is a team that is quite worth choosing because PSG is a team that is developing quite rapidly and also in the UCL they are really taken into account, regardless of those who haven't yet. having won the UCL, I think it's all about timing.
And players like Lamine Yamal or Osimhen are not players who have developed rapidly, they also need time to process, and more precisely they have to choose a team that makes them the main players so that their careers can continue to develop.

There is still plenty of time for young players to think about money matters if they are not planning to retire early so it would be much more appropriate for those who are still young to think more about their career in a more competitive team even if it is not at PSG. Because if you want to hope for the UCL trophy, of course PSG is not the right choice at this time even though we all don't know what condition PSG will be in next season when they return to the UCL competition. But still, young players should be able to pursue their careers in teams that have the potential to win the UCL, not in teams that always fail to get the UCL.

If it is related to their career in winning championship titles, PSG is not the right team because they are only always able to win domestic league titles or several domestic competitions and for various European competition titles it always shows that PSG failed.
But PSG has one thing that can really give great players dilemma and that is financial, they are always willing to pay handsomely with various benefits such as bonuses to the great players they want.
So far PSG has become one of the teams with squad filled with players who are truly talented and have enormous potential, but unfortunately they do not have stable, solid performance in every European competition such as the UCL.

Previously, it was widely reported that Osimhen was close to PSG and had the opportunity to be part of PSG in this summer transfer window, but in reality, currently the ones who really look like they have the potential to get Osimhen are Chelsea and Arsenal.
This is getting more interesting, we will see how PSG competes in getting players who can fill the void in the front line previously held by Mbappe.

PSG will definitely do many things to be able to recruit one of these players, regardless of the response of people who underestimate League 1, it is clear that PSG will not remain silent when they see that their club does not have a star player to rely on, they have a lot of finances to offer to the player. and if players want a challenge they can try playing in league 1 and put on a good performance like Mbappe when he was still playing for PSG.
Being at PSG doesn't make his career fade if his performance is still good, it's just that the chance of getting the UCL title is smaller, just like the clubs they currently occupy, Napoli and Barcelona also have a small chance of winning the title, while PSG can still at least win the domestic title.
