If the name of Harry Kane (Tottenham) circulates regularly on the side of Paris, Luis Campos is very attracted by the profile of Victor Osimhen whom he knew in Lille. But recruiting one of the best attackers of the moment, who finished top of the scoring charts this season in Serie A (26 goals in 32 games) has a price. And this one should be particularly high.

According to our information, the Neapolitan club is demanding 180 million euros from PSG to sell him Victor Osimhen. An exorbitant and disproportionate sum that would make the former center forward of Lille the second most expensive player on the planet. In recent weeks, the Neapolitan president, Aurelio De Laurentiis, has already made it known on several occasions that he will not sell his striker and the price asked by the one who is also a film producer goes in this direction.

Paris does not want to get into the escalation

Difficult, under these conditions, to imagine the PSG acceding to this delusional request from Napoli. Like the Milan Skriniar episode last season, where Inter Milan had claimed 80 million euros from the Parisian club, the latter no longer intends to enter the game in the overbidding. Even if they have a larger envelope than last year, the Parisian leaders will not invest such a sum on Osimhen alone.

During the presentation of his new coach, Rudi Garcia, De Laurentiis also mentioned a possible extension of his player, currently under contract until June 2025… while showing himself open to a departure in the event of a fabulous offer. “We have an agreement in principle for a two-year extension, but if an offer impossible to refuse for the health of the club arrives, we will evaluate it,” he said this week.

Paris and Napoles have already been brought to exchange, in the recent past, on the transfer market. Negotiations had already been tight and the sums at stake were also high. In 2012, PSG enlisted Ezequiel Lavezzi for around forty million euros before paying sixty to recruit Edinson Cavani the following year. Ten years later, the Parisian leaders are once again eyeing the star striker of the Neapolitan club, but not sure that the outcome will be the same with regard to the price requested...
