Chelsea look set to miss out on their number one target Victor Osimhen as the Napoli striker is reportedly very close to sealing a move to Paris Saint-Germain ahead of the 2024/25 season. 

Several top clubs around Europe have monitored the Nigerian ever since he fired Napoli to the Serie A title last season and although he hasn’t been as productive during the last few months, the striker is still regarded as one of the best strikers in the world.

The 25-year-old has netted 14 goals across 26 appearances in all competitions and will look to add to that throughout the remainder of the season as it looks like it will be his last in Naples.

The Ligue 1 side are ready to pay the entire sum of Osimhen’s current release clause, which is said to be at €120m and they are also keen to offer a four-year deal to the Nigerian, who will earn €13 million per season at PSG.
