Osimhen To Reject French Giants For Premier League

Osimhen To Reject French Giants For Premier League

Nigerian top striker Victor Osimhen is currently said to be keen on a move to the Premier League and he is willing to reject Paris Saint-Germain, BSNSports.com.ng has soured. 

Chelsea recently made contact to understand the possibility of a deal for Osimhen and whether Napoli would be interested in taking cash plus Romelu Lukaku and a younger player in the move. Napoli, it was later reported, are interested in signing the Belgian this summer.

Gianluca di Marzio has now informed Sky Italia (via CN24) that Osimhen would rather wait for Premier League clubs to approach instead of joining PSG. The possibility of playing at PSG doesn’t excite Osimhen because he has already played in France with Lille and two teams that can land him in the Premier League are both Arsenal and Chelsea.

In the meantime, Napoli is talking to Chelsea about a deal which could involve Osimhen and Lukaku, with Di Marzio also stating that the Nigerian enjoys England and is there regularly to have a good time with his friends. A move to PSG looks unlikely at this point.
