Personally I think some people are becoming bias with the performance of Victor osimhen last season, osimhen's team Napoli lost form last season that alone affected the performance of all the players because as they couldn't win matches anymore and the goal scoring abilities of the player couldn't be seen again because nothing was working in the team. PSG were interested with him but then Napoli wasn't interested in letting him go even with the offer but since they appear not to be interested in the deal it is better goes where he will supported and appreciated instead of going into a team that won't respect your decisions.
Obviously this is this fact should be considered true because usually I don't know why anyone would be expecting that a team that had a totally poor performance cumulatively should be blamed on a single player who did his best but didn't get the needed support, even for a Play to be outstanding, there needs to be some level of collective support from other team members which I feel osimhen didn't get in full as he should but rather was expected to singly win trophies for the team, at some point mid last season, he was set to leave but Napoli appeared to not letting him go, there after they still weren't showing him the much needed support so very likely he will do better if he's somewhere else where he gets all the support he will be needing.

I think the media needs to bring up the attitude of the team towards the player to the public so that a lot of people have their say concerning this matter of Victor osimhen and his team Napoli. A team can not be in poor form you expect your striker to be scoring goals but when he helped the same team to win trophy he was not well appreciated even when he had the intention of leaving the team he was still not allowed to go because the club still needed him and his services.

I think the club has brought in a good manager that will handle the team well but Conte really need to work with his players and stop being dramatic in his choice of a striker. The Napoli team has made the amount placed on Victor osimhen to drop but yet it is becoming impossible for a club to agree to sign him so I hope they understand what it will caused in the performance of the players because he may have some emotional issues as a result of what has happened between him and his Nigerian coach and what he is facing in Napoli right now.

Ligue 1 is not a very competitive league even if we compare it to Serie A, so I think Osimhen will be the right option for PSG in the future, it's not wrong to bring in young players but PSG should also be aware that they need experienced players to make the squad to be better, dependence on one player must of course be eliminated by PSG at this time, but even so, of course PSG still needs reliable players or strikers who can be the difference in each of their matches in the next season.
PSG must be able to change its habits next season by no longer depending on just one player, because any player is a human being who can get injured because they are not robots who can always be fit in every match, so players from anywhere who are recruited by PSG, of course must can have a good impact on the team even though the team does not have to rely completely on that player. And I think Osimhen is also worth getting as long as there is an agreement from both parties for next season, because if PSG alone has the desire for that, while Napoli or Osimhen themselves have no desire to go to PSG, it is clear that Osimhen's transfer will not happen for PSG.

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.
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.

Victor Osimhen's future is a big question mark as he is likely to leave Napoli this summer transfer season. I think Arsenal and Chelsea are two big clubs interested in moving and staying Nigerian players. As for PSG, I think they may have given up on this deal. Barcelona's Lamine Yamal is the star that PSG wants to pursue. Osimhen's future will certainly be clarified in the summer.

Osimhen is not in good form. Last season, he only scored 17 goals in all competitions.  The clause to break this player's contract is up to 130 million euros, a number that can challenge any club. And of course, Saudi Arabia's football teams also promise to be potential landing spots for Victor Osimhen. Because they have enough money to break that contract.

Even though there was a decline, Osimhen was still able to score 15 goals with Napoli last season. Yes, his scoring ability decreased, but that also happened because the team as a whole was not playing as well as the previous season, so this is not entirely Osimhen's fault in my opinion.
Napoli still insist on setting a high price, even though they have now reduced the price for this player, it is still high. Paris Saint Germain is actually not the only team interested in Osimhen, in the Premier League it is reported that Chelsea are also interested in bringing in this player. Apart from Chelsea, Arsenal is also one of the teams reportedly interested in Osimhen.
I just checked and didn’t find any mention anywhere that PSG would like to buy Osimhen, maybe you confused him with Kvaratskhelia, because PSG want to buy him. But all these are still just rumors, which are now full and in the meantime, PSG remains intrigued, and they still have not strengthened their attack with a forward, although with the departure of Mbappe this is a very necessary step for PSG. Enrique understands this very well, but is in no hurry with new transfers, perhaps they are waiting for the end of the Euro.

As far as I know these transfers have not been finished. Sure they are candidates, but not that relevant at the moment. The European Championship is still going and I think this has priority for the entire French country. Mbappe is gone and they now need to figure out how to find a representative for the future. Not many players can replace Mbappe Wink
Yes, it is clear that there are lots of names that are being linked as great stickers to fill the vacancy left by Mbappe, maybe this is not as replacement but just an effort to fill the front line positions so that they are much stronger after Mbappe departure.
If it is said to be replacement then it must be equal to or much better than Mbappe quality and so far there is no player who is equal to or exceeds Mbappe quality to be able to replace him in the PSG squad, it just that whatever it is, of course we all support the initial steps taken taken by Enrique.
There are more than two names that PSG could potentially bring in in this summer transfer window, and I will be waiting to see who really deserves place in PSG front line in the future.

Everyone is still focused on competitions such as the Euros and the Copa America, but now that there are only few teams left from these two competitions, there are many opportunities for Enrique to re-consider the players he will be interested in in the future.
By the way, France managed to beat Portugal in the quarter-finals of Euro 2024 on penalties and they qualified for the semifinals, I saw that there were several young French players who were quite dominant with good skills if they were developed.

Therefore, PSG must consider it if they want to sign Osimhen because his quality has decreased quite a bit since he led Napoli to win the title, this possibility will certainly also have an impact on his new club. Moreover, the transfer fee is very expensive and if PSG is still dependent on players like that then they will not be able to develop further.

Didn't PSG some time ago not want to be dependent on that and prefer to recruit young players who are quite promising in the future, so they have to maintain this step rather than being attracted to quality that cannot be consistent like Osimhen. I am sure that PSG can slowly change their thinking and management to become the front guard to support this step.
Osimhen performance may not be as good as when he played a few seasons ago, but to compete in Ligue 1 of course he is still quite capable of doing it, Currently, Osimhen is still one of the list of players in Serie A who really has sharpness and goal scoring instincts extraordinarily very good, so we can't underestimate him just because this season he failed to score more than 15 goals, this season Osimhen only played 25 matches with Napoli because he had to play for his country and also suffered an injury when he returned to Napoli, but even so , Napoli  started to experience an increase in performance since Osimhen recovered and returned to the main squad, so we cannot say that the decline in Osimhen number of goals this season is due to his poor play.

Ligue 1 is not a very competitive league even if we compare it to Serie A, so I think Osimhen will be the right option for PSG in the future, it's not wrong to bring in young players but PSG should also be aware that they need experienced players to make the squad to be better, dependence on one player must of course be eliminated by PSG at this time, but even so, of course PSG still needs reliable players or strikers who can be the difference in each of their matches in the next season.

During his career he grew up at PSG and everyone knows him thanks to his expertise in leading this team for many years. But unfortunately his age continues to increase and in fact his performance is still good enough to be at PSG. However, no one knows the future and sometimes it comes faster than expected if in the end he chooses to leave PSG.

An offer from a Saudi pro league team will certainly be difficult to refuse, especially since Marquinhos is so full of titles and experience from his time at PSG that even if he leaves, the club won't be able to hold him back any longer. The rest is that PSG must be prepared to look for other alternative players to fill the central defender position that he will leave and I think if Al-Ittihad are interested in signing him then they must quickly provide a proposal.
30 years old Brazilian and PSG centre back who spend his careers 11 years here at the PSG is not well famous but now having under radar of Al Ittihad as they are trying to fix their problems which hurt them in last season, and they were not able to stay at the top of Saudi League with most chance we will have this transfer because now PSG is also trying to have new blood which helps them for having better results in all competitions he was one of the highest paid player under 20 at the time of this transfer from Roma.

Offer is surely going to be considered by the PSG Management because now having new coach at the both clubs and trying to bring improved things going to be helpful for them having good amount into their wallet after selling Marquinhos who is captain but not well favored right now due to having changes at this club under Luis Enrique.
Paris Saint Germain will see first whether they can bring in a player who can replace Marquinhos well or not, because in my opinion he is still enough to stay at Paris Saint Germain. They also shouldn't be tempted by the money they will get from the Saudi team, because they also have good finances.
However, it also depends on whether the coach will retain this player or not and the management will definitely discuss it with the coach first. If the coach wants to keep him, then I think he will still stay at Paris Saint Germain, unless the coach doesn't include him in the game scenario that will be implemented.

Personally I think some people are becoming bias with the performance of Victor osimhen last season, osimhen's team Napoli lost form last season that alone affected the performance of all the players because as they couldn't win matches anymore and the goal scoring abilities of the player couldn't be seen again because nothing was working in the team.

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.
A good player will not be able to provide good performance for the team if he can only work alone without any help from his own teammates on the team. So it would not be enough to say that Osimhen is a bad player because he does not get more good support from his teammates who may still be less able to provide the best passes to him when in the match. Because in fact he still has to be considered a good player at Napoli so that Napoli sets a high price for him so that other teams cannot reach him more easily.

When Napoli won the Scudetto even though Osimhen's transfer market value was very high, but other elite teams could certainly afford to buy him. But, because Osimhen chose to stay at Napoli, then the other elite teams failed to sign Osimhen. So, it's not about the high transfer market value, because Osimhen himself refused the offer from other elite teams and Osimhen received a contract extension at Napoli because Osimhen chose to stay at Napoli. But unfortunately, because in the last season Napoli got bad results and Osimhen's performance also decreased but, this moment Napoli still set a high price on Osimhen. Thus, the elite team that currently still wants Osimhen to be hesitant and full of consideration, because the performance decreased last season but Napoli still put a high price for Osimhen.
Therefore, PSG must consider it if they want to sign Osimhen because his quality has decreased quite a bit since he led Napoli to win the title, this possibility will certainly also have an impact on his new club. Moreover, the transfer fee is very expensive and if PSG is still dependent on players like that then they will not be able to develop further.

Didn't PSG some time ago not want to be dependent on that and prefer to recruit young players who are quite promising in the future, so they have to maintain this step rather than being attracted to quality that cannot be consistent like Osimhen. I am sure that PSG can slowly change their thinking and management to become the front guard to support this step.

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.
PSG is a big club but unfortunately this club is not developing well but I understand maybe this is because PSG is in league 1 where the competition is not as competitive as other European leagues, other clubs do not have as much finances as PSG in recruiting star players because that is PSG always win domestic titles because PSG's strength is greater than other clubs in the league.

However, PSG's many struggles in improving the quality of their game still mean their strength is not comparable to that of strong clubs from other leagues who always dominate the Champions League.

In my opinion, bringing in young players like Yamal and Oshimen there is no harm. PSG wants to continue fighting to perform well in the future, no matter how difficult the challenge is they won't just give up.

Honestly, I don't understand what you mean by saying that PSG is more interested in buying trophies than getting them? I guess not everything can be bought even if it's a trophy?! If he can buy it, why doesn't he buy the UCL trophy instead of having to fight all this way? PSG won the League 1 title because of the strength they have.

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.
Your comparison isn't sounding solid, I know I'm the last season, towards the end of the league osimhen's performance did dropped and that too has affected his price but on a second taught it's possible there were factors that led to that which if taken care of he would do better, at PSG those factors that led to his poor performance may not be there but PSG still isn't a fit for him, his career may not do so well in PSG.

At the moment PSG isn't prioritizing getting him into the squad and he is yet to even show any interest in PSG as an option for his move, there were rumors of an interest in him by PSG last season before the end of the season but the deal didn't pull through and even now it's not looking like one that they would want to revisit again. Away from PSg, in other teams if osimhen gets and opportunity he's still gat some good potential.

Personally I think some people are becoming bias with the performance of Victor osimhen last season, osimhen's team Napoli lost form last season that alone affected the performance of all the players because as they couldn't win matches anymore and the goal scoring abilities of the player couldn't be seen again because nothing was working in the team.

But if we have no solid transfer for the PSG in these coming days then surely we can expect from them to have this player under their control, and he could be available for next season in coming season but right now nothing is predictable with all are working on their own targets.
For now I think we still have to continue to wait until the transfer of players is really crowded and we will see it happen when the Euro and Copa America are finished because after all there are always diamonds that can be taken because of good performance in national competitions which of course this can be a good thing for scouts looking for several players including young stars.

Currently PSG is still struggling with two players who are their rumors where Osimhen and Kvaratskhelia are always discussed and rumored to be close to PSG.
But even though the rumors always appear but the clarity is still uncertain so with this I think the most important thing for PSG now besides looking for players they also as much as possible should be able to keep Xavi Simons away because this could be a good alternative in PSG's midfield especially if you see how he performed at Leipzig this season and at the Euro now then of course this is a talent that PSG should not waste.

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.
Osimhen's performance when he brought Napoli to the Scudetto was of course extraordinary and that's why previously PSG was very interested in getting him, but I think we all agree that there is no guarantee that a player can continue to be on fire every season and that's what happened to Osimhen Currently, Osimhen performance and goal productivity this season has decreased and he was only able to score 15 goals for Napoli, but the decrease in the number of goals occurred because he suffered an injury and was absent from playing for Napoli after Nigeria called him to play in the African Cup, but for now Osimhen is still is the right option for PSG if they want to find another striker who is worthy of replacing Mbappe.

Osimhen was able to appear quite prominent in Serie A even though he had to compete with great strikers owned by rival teams, but if he departure to PSG next season of course I'm sure he will be able to immediately top the top scorer position in Ligue 1 like when Mbappe replaced Cavani in PSG attack line, to be honest, at the moment it seems difficult for us to compare the level and quality of Osimhen and Mbappe considering that the differences in competition in Ligue 1 and Serie A are quite contradictory.

Away from PSg, in other teams if osimhen gets and opportunity he's still gat some good potential.
I'm even surprised to see that many people are judging Victor Osimhen with his performance of last season with Napoli hence their opinion that he's unlikely to deliver great performances should a club like Paris Saint Germaine sign him. I think the whole of the Napoli team last season was just short of their best and that affected the team's performance which was why we didn't see Victor Osimhen score the same incredible numbers we saw him score last two season. At Paris Saint Germaine, I strongly believe that Victor Osimhen will do exceptionally well because the team already have quality players that'll help supply him the crosses and passes to convert. There's no doubt that the Nigeria international is a very prolific striker that can succeed in any of the top clubs in Europe because he's actually proven how good he is.
Just like you said, Paris Saint Germaine aren't currently doing much to land Victor Osimhen to their club and we've seen any statement from Osimhen that suggests his desire to play for Paris Saint Germaine. The transfer window still have one more month before it closes so let's keep our fingers crossed and see what the future holds for Osimhen

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 is current season's transfer window top talk as time is running out we are having things still uncertain about his future with before last season when they won title with Napoli we have some good offers which even touch the figure of €150 Million, but Napoli insist on keeping him then we have disastrous time for the Napoli and Osimhen which hurt them badly and now both are suffering no club is having intention to pay amount like this due to his poor run even we all know he is the quality player and can bring success with his own but uncertainty going around which is hurting.

But if we have no solid transfer for the PSG in these coming days then surely we can expect from them to have this player under their control, and he could be available for next season in coming season but right now nothing is predictable with all are working on their own targets.

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.


During his career he grew up at PSG and everyone knows him thanks to his expertise in leading this team for many years. But unfortunately his age continues to increase and in fact his performance is still good enough to be at PSG. However, no one knows the future and sometimes it comes faster than expected if in the end he chooses to leave PSG.

An offer from a Saudi pro league team will certainly be difficult to refuse, especially since Marquinhos is so full of titles and experience from his time at PSG that even if he leaves, the club won't be able to hold him back any longer. The rest is that PSG must be prepared to look for other alternative players to fill the central defender position that he will leave and I think if Al-Ittihad are interested in signing him then they must quickly provide a proposal.
PSG must be very wise in responding to the possibility of Marquinhos transfer, because it could increase their workload in the transfer window. In my opinion, we should keep Marquinhos, he has just turned 30 years old and his performance is still very good. It will be very difficult for PSG to find other alternatives if they let their captain leave, his experience and understanding of the club is really needed. PSG must ensure the transition of players goes well, to maintain balance within the team, as many elite European clubs do. PSG must first think about a replacement for Mbappe, regardless of who they bring in. Releasing Marquinhos is not a necessity, because from a financial perspective PSG is still very stable. Indeed, the Saudi Pro League club can offer a fantastic amount of money, but it would be better for PSG to reject their offer for now.
Marquinhos only played 21 times in Ligue 1 this season but not because his performance decline and the main factor why Marquinhos cannot be played full this season because he was got injured which made Marquinhos have to absense several times because he have to recover from his injury but if Marquinhos in the good fitness Luis Enrique always be rely on him to guarded PSG defensive lines so i think this proven PSG is still need him and if i am not mistaken Marquinhos is still being an PSG captain so i don't think he will leave this team this summer moreover Marquinhos has long term contract with PSG that last year he has decide to signing new contract until 2028 and indeed there is any rumour that he was targetting to some of Saudi Arabian clubs but i don't think Marquinhos will be interested to accept the offers from them even Marquinhos has a plan if possible he wants to end his football career at PSG so in my opinion Marquinhos to Saudi Pro League will not going to happend

Away from PSg, in other teams if osimhen gets and opportunity he's still gat some good potential.

PSG most likely have better contract terms, and I think better prospects in the Champions League than Napoli. If a football player feels that he wants to move on, then there is no point in keeping him. I don’t understand why PSG is a bad club for a career, they are the undoubted leaders in their championship, that is, this is an opportunity to get champion medals from another championship. In addition, they always strive to win the Champions League, and often get quite far. Of course, Ligue 1 is not as competitive a championship as the Premier League or La Liga, but you need to evaluate the capabilities of the club as a whole, and not just within their championship.
In my opinion, there is a big difference when you play for a medium team but are in a competitive league with a big team but are not competitive league at all, so indeed the situation and conditions will be one of the factors that really determine a player desire to join, but it is different with osimhen who really wants to join PSG but actually faces big obstacles with the high prices set by Napoli at the moment, we all know that Napoli chances of competing in Serie A are very small because they must to compete with many big teams and this is different from PSG which In fact, they have dominated Ligue 1 all this time, so as you said, PSG is like the king who has been replaced in Ligue 1.

PSG is fighting hard to get their first Champions League trophy at the moment, so Osimhen can use PSG as a stepping stone to get a better career and finances in the future, Joining PSG will of course guarantee Osimhen can continue to win domestic league trophies and I think there is no other team in Ligue 1 that can continue to be guaranteed to qualify for the Champions League every season apart from PSG at this time.

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.
A good player will not be able to provide good performance for the team if he can only work alone without any help from his own teammates on the team. So it would not be enough to say that Osimhen is a bad player because he does not get more good support from his teammates who may still be less able to provide the best passes to him when in the match. Because in fact he still has to be considered a good player at Napoli so that Napoli sets a high price for him so that other teams cannot reach him more easily.

When Napoli won the Scudetto even though Osimhen's transfer market value was very high, but other elite teams could certainly afford to buy him. But, because Osimhen chose to stay at Napoli, then the other elite teams failed to sign Osimhen. So, it's not about the high transfer market value, because Osimhen himself refused the offer from other elite teams and Osimhen received a contract extension at Napoli because Osimhen chose to stay at Napoli. But unfortunately, because in the last season Napoli got bad results and Osimhen's performance also decreased but, this moment Napoli still set a high price on Osimhen. Thus, the elite team that currently still wants Osimhen to be hesitant and full of consideration, because the performance decreased last season but Napoli still put a high price for Osimhen.
