Paris St-Germain, the formidable force in Ligue 1, is poised to fulfill Napoli's final stipulations to secure the transfer of Nigerian forward Victor Osimhen to France, as reported by Nigeriasoccernet.com.
Osimhen, coveted by elite clubs like Manchester United and Chelsea throughout the season, seems destined for Paris as the French giants surge ahead in the race for his signature.
Despite Osimhen's recent contract extension with Serie A champions Napoli, binding him until 2026, a release clause in the agreement paves the way for a potential departure.
Corriere dello Sport reveals that Paris St-Germain is prepared to meet Osimhen's hefty £111.5m release clause, signaling their determination to acquire the 25-year-old Nigerian striker this summer.
With Kylian Mbappe on the brink of departing the French champions for Real Madrid, PSG is leaving no stone unturned in their pursuit of the African Footballer of the Year.
