The French club's pursuit of Victor Osimhen has taken a new twist as they plot to offer Napoli three players to get the Nigerian forward
French giants Paris Saint-Germain are keen to offer players in their move for Napoli striker Victor Osimhen.
The Nigerian striker has been earmarked for sale from Napoli this summer, and the French club appear the most willing to make a deal with the Partenopei for his signature.
PSG eager for Osimhen deal
According to Gianluca di Marzio PSG remain the most interested club in Osimhen, and the Nigerian’s agent, Roberto Calenda, was in Paris yesterday for a meeting with the French club.
Reports suggest that PSG are willing to include players in the negotiations and are currently considering three names.
The first is former Valencia midfielder Carlos Soler, the second is French defender Nordi Mukiele, and the third is another former Valencia star, Korean winger Lee Kang-In.
PSG are hoping that the players included in the deal will help sweeten the deal for Napoli and convince the Partenopei to soften their stance on Osimhen’s €130 million release clause.
Napoli willing to deal for PSG forward
While PSG have proposed multiple players, Napoli seem primarily interested in the South Korean Lee Kang-In, who joined PSG only a season ago.
The Partenopei are interested in adding the Korean to their frontline, especially if they lose Georgian winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who is also a target for PSG.
Lee Kang-In’s inclusion in the deal for Osimhen could be the tipping point for the transfer to go through which will also allow Napoli make a move for other transfer targets this summer.
