The Lagos-born is one of the most sought-after strikers in Europe, having been linked with moves to Chelsea, Arsenal, Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester United, and Liverpool, among others, following impressive seasons with Napoli.
Despite the departure of Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid, PSG remained silent on their pursuit of Osimhen, being also reluctant to meet the hefty £113m asking price for the striker and were happy with the duo Goncalo Ramos and Randal Kolo Muani.
Osimhen was believed to be keen to test himself in the Premier League after making a name for himself in Serie A with Napoli and in Ligue 1 with Lille, whose rivals Paris Saint-Germain were formerly thought to be Chelsea’s main contenders.

PSG are expected to rekindle their search for a new striker before the transfer window closes after Goncalo Ramos sustained a severe ankle sprain 20 minutes into Les Parisiens’ opening Ligue 1 game against Le Havre on Friday.

Osimhen has amassed 76 goals and 18 assists in 133 matches for Napoli in all competitions since 2022, but he has been frozen out of the squad after it was reported that he requested to leave this summer.
